Ok guys, whats the most amount of damage you have delt to your boat vs the best reward recieved for the damage?

I prefished this weekend for the Chamber next weekend and I paid both days.

Saturday hit a stump VERY hard and knocked a 1" by 1" square chunk out of my gel coat near the transome but Rewarded with a 8.5 and 6 lb walleyes

Sunday, was a bit windy, caught a bad wave while moving the boat around in the trees and shot a branch through my windshield, glass everywhere, Rewarded with a 7.25 lb walleye.

Worth it???? Dont know, but i'm still having fun!!!!!
 

Good Luck and Good Fishin'

I've been beached fishing the missouri after the corps dropped the water level over 24hr period just enough to get me stranded about 30yrds in on a sand bar,another time tore the lower unit completely off on a reef on LOW's,thank goodness for the kicker and the yammie"pit crew" back at weigh-in.But,yeah its part of the competition game,sometimes ya gotta get real nasty to make things work.,boats and motors can be repaired.

Is this a new boat? or are ya adding battle scares?
