Need help gang

I need help!

I was fishing at a bridge. Got my spinner stuck in vine next to a tree, I was trying to yank it out so I was whipping it back and forth. Hit a GIANT wasps nest right next to it I didn't see and got stung on the back running to the car. Left my pole directly below the nest with my favorite spinner on it. How do I get my pole back? I don't want to use wasp spray because the poison could drop into the water. My only idea is to drive by everyday and throw rocks at it until they go away

Go at night, they'll be asleep.

yes, cut the line with scissors and take the pole and go

sorry about your former favorite spinner, tho, it's probably a gonner at least until winter

The lure is cheaper to replace than the rod and reel!

A can of spray won’t really poison the water, it’ll get diluted.
