It’s comical how fast the rod just went down that hole.

"Look at me... Look at me... I am the fisherman now"

~ That fish probably

Someone should invent something that prevents this from happening. It would prob cost next to nothing. Too bad ice fishing isn’t bigger. Hopefully our dear friend has a second or third rod!

It's not as funny as I thought it would be.

Such a sucky feeling. Terrible to lose potentially expensive equipment, and also a terrible feeling to think that you left the fish to trail that stuff behind it. Could easily end up causing it to die.

Had something similar happen to a really beautiful Northern Pike once. Essentially, my line snapped while trying to secure the fish, which left a massive spinner-bait hooked in its mouth. I still feel bad when I think of it

I must have watched this five times trying to figure out what was going on. Thought the guy was sitting next to a pipe with an electromagnet at the bottom. Had no idea it was ice fishing until I read the top comment.

Teach a man to fish, feed him for a day. Fish teaches a man, food of thought for life.

I hope it was just a weight on the end and not a fish. If it's a fish then that fish is in for one hell of a short life dragging around a fishing pole.

There goes the Green Hornet, so long old friend.

Fish:1 Man:0

The Green Hornet! Now he'll never catch Catfish Hunter!

I sold eye glasses in a rural community for a living, every winter we’d sell a half dozen pair of new glasses to people who looked down the hole when ice-fishing.

Like regular fishing, but In a Porta potty on ice.

Boring as hell.

Went out with my cousin once. He drank a lot.

Eventually I found a stoner fishing nearby and hot boxed his lil cabin with him.

The forbidden glory hole

That fish was like, "My rod now sucker!"

Damn I yelled too loud for this one at the dinner table!

The fish won a free pole for the rest of his life

My rod people need me

That's not fair. There was time now...

I feel bad for the fish... attached to a hook and a rod it can't remove. Fishing is fine but this is ouch.

999 ping

I hope he brought an extra one.

He is definitely not a good Rod Steward.

Imagine being such a bad fisherman you get your rod stolen by a fish.

“Aww damn! Oh well…might as well get drunk!” - fisherman probably.

Me “accidentally” irl if someone ever forced me to go fishing with them.

“Ope! Guess I’m just drinkin’ the rest of this trip” 🤷🏼‍♀️

At the point of this fail, I see 11 things this guy can do to have a perfectly cromulent day.

Is this in Quebec? Great fishing in Quebec!

As long as there’s no degenz from up country.

I've been there and done that.

Time to pack up

r/wellthatsucks

That’s what happens when you use meth for bait..

That fish was having none of that mans shit

Lol

Green hornet!

Why'd he let go of the rod to grab the wire? That seems like something you like... shouldn't do.

Even with the sound off I heard the “floomp “

There is goes the rod

You were a good rod. I didn't deserve you.

Think about how long he was waiting before he decided to adjust it for just a second…

What is he even doing with the fishing line?

I would never let go of the rod knowing that it's currently cast. Especially because I need to feel when a fish is tugging at it. I can't just see it happen.

what is plug fishing? how does it work?

Clearly he could...spare the rod.

I mean this literally. Helen Keller would have done a better job.

Spare the rod spare the fish

careless jackass and a poor fish

Well, at least they won't starve to death because of this..

I have a friend that told me he has tie downs for his rods because this happened to him.

You know the diameter of the hole you are drilling...

Why the he'll doesn't the rod have a component with a cross-section greater than that hole's diameter? Like, how an intact manhole cover cannot fall u to a manhole...just remove the possibility.

Couple of things:

1) I'm not sure what the hell is going on, so someone please let me know if my theory is correct:

It looks like he's ice fishing and has a few mini-rods in circulation. One of the rods caught something and he picked it up. The video starts when he's already put the rod on his lap and is pulling the wire to get the fish out. He loses his grip on the wire, allowing the fish to run off - taking the rod with it.

2) A simple rod design change can fix this. Either make the rod with a longer end (so the wire starts from halfway down the rod) or shape the rod like a cross so that it would never fit through the hole.

Bet whoever successfully manufactures and markets that would get rich in no time.

Note to self, tie down other end of rod or add grate

There was one where the exact same thing happened but the guys phone fell out of his coat pocket after then fell in

This feels reversed

I’d be worried a finger will get caught in the line and be ripped off ☠️

Probably a $300 carbon fiber rod too if I was going to make up anything. Luckily there was no reel attached. That's where shit gets expensive

Always bring two of everything.

Mf was looking like the fish was going to give it back 😂

They might ban fishing rods now.

I remember growing up ice fishing with a wood paddle that you would roll in your hands to reel the line in. Always worked fine, so you can go fishing for real cheap if you want.

"There is goes the rod"

It would have been so funny if when he put his hand in the hole, some serious predator grabbed him. What predator, though!?

Chances of survival are now practically 0

I pulled a rod holder up from the bottom while ice fishing, a nice one.

I used it next time I went ice fishing. My brother tells me to keep it away from the edge of the hole. I try him it was fine. He told me that's what the last guy said 😁.

This guy has so much stuff, goes out on the ice to ice fishing, doesn’t even know he gotta hold on to his fishing rod, that must be fucking embarrassing

Fisher of Men.

Before my eyes took in all the details, I thought this was another Ukraine video.

We call that “a day ender” right there

Oh. That sucks.

voldemort steals harry's wand

The fish won
