I've done plenty over the years...

This past summer, I stepped off a rock, into what I thought was a solid bottom, that was actually soft mud, causing me to fall over, soaking my fishing vest, and ruining a pocket camera. Next time, I think I'll check how far down it is and verify that it is a solid bottom before taking a "leap of faith"

I also left the plug for my boat down near the ground, and my dog found it, and proceeded to bury it. I still haven't found that one. Now I keep the plug in my tackle box.
