This is just too funny not to share, (By bud (and adopted brother) won't think so, but I don't care).
My bud Sergio (Who was best man in my wedding, I was best man in his), asked to borrow the Biesemeyer to go fishing this weekend as his brother in law was in town from Montana. No problem. He has no real tow vehicle, so I said, take my truck. lol
Apparently, and I'm just getting the pieces of the story tonight, as they are all on their way here for a Steak barbeque at my house, everything went fine. When they got back to the dock, one guy got out on the dock while another puttered around in the boat, ready to pull it out. Sergio yells, hey I need my keys (His keyring he left in the boat, containing the ONLY key to my truck, and he knew that). The guy grabs them and throws them, quite short, and they went in the lake in about 10 feet of water, lol.
They have spent, as of the last phone call, 4 hours dragging a bunch of treble hooks on a couple pieces of fishing line around the dock trying to retreive the keys, lol.
His wife called me and I laughed. Hysterically. They thought I'd be pissed, so they haven't called me.
So the result is, someone called their wife, she brought their truck up and changed the trailer to it and got the boat out, lol. My truck is still at the lake, and they're gonna head back up first thing in the morning trying to retreive the keys. LMFAO.
Called the Ford dealer when I heard of this, I can get a key cut, just bring in the title and no problem, lol.
Not gonna tell them that tho.
Just thought I'd share a day in my world, lol.

Thats fricken funny! I wouldnt tell them either about being able to get a new key...make them sweat. In fact, grab a lawn chair and go sit on the dock with a cooler of beer and laugh all day long as they try to "fish" the keys out. ;)

That is a great story! I saw what was coming as soon as I heard the guy yell he needs his keys. I still don't understand though why they wouldn't have gone in after them. Would have much better luck feeling with your hands rather than a treble hook.
I'm with OC2Vegas and make a day of it, with a cooler of beer either on the dock or bring the boat and do some puttin' of your own for the afternoon. Did they catch any fish at least? Or did they catch no fish and no keys. That would be one hell of a skunk!

take a dummy key and tell'em when they find it it aint yours

make them sweat it out!

Kinda what I'm doin, lol, Let 'em sweat a bit. They looked all morning I guess, no luck, I'll let them off then hook tomorrow if I can get one that fast, lol.
So my truck is gonna sit at the marina another day, they had to buy a couple more days passes for it, and a ticket for last night I guess ;D
