Lost SMB and Finger reel at Dutch Springs today

[ladyfishdvr]

I think near the schoolbus. Was hoping to get to practice deploying it but it escaped from my BC and swam away.
If you found it or find it, please PM me.

did you call Dutch to check their lost and found? I am up again this weekend and will keep an eye out

 

[ladyfishdvr]

No I didn't. I should be up there again tomorrow and will ask about it then. It did not have my name on it.

Better to use it and lose it, than to not use it and lose your head! "Or something like that"

Sorry you lost it, I managed to stuff my deployment and had to let mine go or have an uncontrolled ascent. That's why I now have 2. Luckily the captain was on the ball and got it before it drifted away, and also found us as well.

Good captains are worth their weight in gold.

Hope you find it

Doesn't Dutch require a permit/prior permission to shoot a bag?

 

[ladyfishdvr]

I am not aware of any permit or permission required. There is nothing on their website under Rules that says they require a permit. I do not see why you could not practice deploying one.

No, we do that all the time for practice...

When I am using a SMB at Dutch, I stop and tell the closest rescue staffer.

 

[Peter69_56]

I am unfamiliar with the need to get a permit to shoot a SMB? Why is this so? Never heard of it here in OZ

 

[tplyons]

I practice shooting SMB's all the time at Dutch, no permission needed.

I'm out there tomorrow morning. I'll let you know if I come across it.
