That spin out was in a skeeter boat. Most people I fish with don't wear a kill switch. I usually don't wear a life jacket either. Video makes me question if I'm an idiot

Well let me tell you...fathers day a few years ago we pulled a guy outnof the water with his hand hanging on by a thread. Fell out of his bay boat and the fricker sharked him until it chopped his hand/lower arm damn near off.

We pulled him out. Big heavy guy and tied his arm up and got him to an ambulance. Pretty miraculous he fricking lived.

No lifejacket no kill switch.

Big fella with a red t shirt and was impossible to see. We had to follow the blood trail to him in the waves.

My life jacket is safety orange with reflective tape. I no longer fish without a belt either. Need something to grab onto to get you back in a boat.

This was on a beautiful clear day on big lake.
