Default Got Trailer?

Well, we were heading to Big Lake this morning hoping to see spots. Unfortunately we saw spots alright but it was the ones that you don't want to see. Comming up 210 between the barricades we smashed into the side. Knocked the axles off of one side but very little damage to the boat. My boy Billy from Elite Wrecker service came to the rescue. Still wanting to go fishing just had to be creative. I asked Billy if he could launch it, and he said no problem. Launched the boat at prien with my buddy Mike Heinnen (came to the rescue with a flat bed to put my trailer on which was on loan from his brother mark) on hand and a gallery of folks comming to enjoy the sights. I told Mike it looked like one of his gallerys (He is a pro golfer). Got everything squared away then off to the feesh, but engine made a little clicking sound so parked the boat at a friends and started shopping for a trailer. If any of you have a trailer that would fit a 22ft bay boat with an 8'6" beam please let me know. No one was hurt and damage was minimal. Lifes to short to sweat the small stuff. Shad and LA Angler can you guys spare a few extra Salty Cajun Bucks for posting my story?
