A marine-related incident occurred at approximately 11:20 a.m., on Saturday, Jan. 28, 2023. A grandfather and his grandson were fishing in the current below Wilson Dam on Pickwick Lake.

This is a boat similar to the boat involved in the accident.
A-Rig and similar multi-lure/wire lures can get out of control when being stored. Here’s our solution. Simply wrap a small cable tie strap around the wires. Slide the cable tie down to store the rig and slide the plastic tie to the weighted head to fish. Simple, cheap, and effective.
