re: Are boat launches some of the most comical places on earth?

I was bank fishing at Mayo Lock and Dam on the Coosa River in Rome, Georgia one Sunday afternoon and a commercial trot line guy backed his old jon boat and ford F150 right off the end of that snotty slick ramp. There was about a 8 foot drop off at the end of a very short ramp...great place to catch fish by the way, that ramp causes a good eddy...and as the boat went over that ledge it drug the truck down and he jumped out just in time. The boat got hung under the winch post and floated the whole truck and trailer a few hundred yards into about 15 feet of water and then the boat floated free and headed to Lake Weiss. When the divers showed up they searched the area where the boat broke free....truck and trailer were gone. They were found about a mile and half down stream....moving water is an amazing force, id almost bet that truck wouldn't have pulled that trailer a mile and a half on a good stretche of paved road....
