I pulled this from the depths of pool 4 yesterday afternoon with my anchor. It had no less than 10,000 jigs, 3000 blade baits, and even a few big circle hooks. If you have lost any tackle to this log you can claim it at Everts. 
Oh and it also had an anchor and rope attached.
If that was on the minnesota side up by the dam, then about 50 of those bladebaits are mine 
I’ll just be glad if that was the snag and it’s gone.
Holy cow dude..what are you using for line 
Wow…..that should be dried out and hung up in the baitshop!
Maybe we could do the same w/ Bk. 
The purple one with the white paddle tail is mine.
That is not the “pitching pole” up in the corner. I spose there could be two…but I’m thinking that came from another location.
What a catch!
Tom…careful, I’m taking your wife fishing. 
that a sin that it was even in the water… Wow.. thank you for pulling that up.. and I don’t even fish there.. you deserve at least some of those baits for just removing that..
wow.. Wow.. …. WOW….
way to go..
I’d say have a garage sale at Everts and all the proceeds go towards filling the cookie jar at the bait shop! 
That’s good stuff
Did those kids come with it?
Wow. That is a log. surprised there is not fish attached to it to. A buddy of mine has a water spike and rope up by the dam. Im sure its doing its fair job of collecting lures.
Can you tell me more about the anchor?
Almost none of the tackle was salvageable. It is amazing how fast the hooks corrode and “dissolve”, jigs and blade baits that looked brand new were completely missing hooks.

They are not bashful about asking for tootsie rolls
That things got to be worth $10,000!!!
Very Cool!
WHat’s with all those purple worms? I don’t fish down there but that must be some kind of magic bait?

My anchor got tangled in the other anchor rope. I could pull my anchor almost to the surface then it would just stop so i figured I was on some sort of rope or cable. Being the cheap [censored] that I am and not wanting to lose my anchor I tied it off to the back of the boat and “floored it”! CRACK and up she came.
Gosh, I was hoping you found my waterspike from Oct 25… 
upper end of the Wisc side…
Way to go Josh, now that is a baitshop display if I have ever seen one! Thank God you got rid of that rat [censored]!!!!!!!!!
bet a bunch are mine, eric’s, jim’s, curts, marty’s, dean’s, dustin’s, yours, Sean’s, Jesse’s, Tim’s,Brian’s, Jeff’s, Jeff’s son, and about 10 thousand others I have yet to mention.
Nice work Josh, i’m sure more than a few of them are mine….
Jami
I bet the boy and I contributed a couple more than a couple too
Any bullhead skeletons attached to it? 
That location could tell a few stories ! Gonna kill tackle sales till I can get it put back there….

How long before you pull in those bed springs from the corners?
Looks like a “CUSS” log to me
I recognize about 25 of those blade baits and 90+ yards of Trilene (green) 
Thanks for landing that beast! Definitely a treasure both for you and the rest of us that will now save some money.
