Default Lost gear at Wabamun (fallis)

My friend and I had a great day at fallis... Until our tailgate apparently fell down somewhere between the ice at fallis and Edmonton. We are hoping that it happened at the bank where you drive on the ice and a fellow forum member found it.

Really bummed right now. I certainly don't have the budget to replace all that gear. Hoping for a few good sales this week.

We had a cooler and a bucket full of rods, tackle, tip-ups, and tackle. It was all my ice fishing gear. Did any one happen to see it and possibly pick it up?

That's great news that you found it. I was the last one off the ice Saturday and didn't see anything. Glad there's honest people out there still.
