great to hear you got it back. a few yrs ago up in geneva oh I found a good set of trolling bags and didn't have a clue. I live in Indiana but went to the geneva marina and posted them with my phone number. after about 2 yrs and no contact, we decided to try them. I was using an easy troll trolling plate. but after that, I still use the bags. I never returned them but I tried. and they are put to good use.
