Swept away in the water at the downstream end of the little island near the deer crossing sign today - 5/16/2020. I was on the little sand bar at the downstream end of the island.

Did you have any line out or were you rigged for walking? Bill Carnazzo once lost a rod while actively fishing a deep pool in the Sierra but was able to retrieve it after sitting on the bank and waiting. He was using a dry fly with a floating line and enough of the line was out of the reel so that eventually the line rose to the surface. Bill swam out, got a hold of the line and swam back to shore. He started pulling and pretty much drew all of the line out of the reel. It ultimately unwound down to the spool but the spool knot held and he recovered the rod and reel. Here’s hoping yours is recoverable.
Hey Glen : Richard Here i am on Putah creek a lot and want to help I just called a friend and asked if I, we could free dive and retrieve your rod and reel he did not pick up but I left a messagein the meantime feel free to call me and I might go look and bring my fins I would love to get you your gear back to you
