Before any of you guys hurt yourselves blowing pop through your nose laughing, I'd like to report the bin bottom at TR#5 is cross-threaded and stuck solid. Do either of you, Steve or Alex, have a pipe wrench to unscrew it? And I do mean solid. I'm afraid it's going to prove too damaged to repair since it's been cross-threaded all the way to the top. (There was no way to tell how much line might have been stuck in the bin.) Can someone with a pipe wrench check it out for me; I don't have any wrenches that big?

Amount of Line Collected: The bin was nearly full, jam-packed with line.
Misc in bin: Only a few pinched split shot and one gold hook.
Other comments: This was the most line I've ever seen in one bin.

No sweat. This was bound to happen sooner or later. I'll get out there next week and check it. I've got a wrench big enough.
