    anyone lose a prop @ Green River lake?...I found it

    I found this prop 11/9 and it was barley under the water. In the last week they have been slowly pulling water so one week later on 11/16 it was out of the water. To my surprise it came out of the stump fairly easy. The hub kit is still intact. It snapped off at the prop shaft. I spent maybe 5 minutes cleaning the dirt off it. I would estimate its only been in the water for a short time. Check out the before picture and then compare it to picture #3. Had I not posted the before picture you would never known it was lodged in a stump. In picture #4 you can see some very light scratches. If anyone has lost this prop or knows someone who lost one at Green River Lake please reach out to me with the exact location it impacted the tree. If you can identify the exact spot I found it I will do my best to see its returned.

    Don’t know if that came off a Bass boat so might have better results with FB? BTW, that is cool.

    Looks more like a prop from a runabout than a bass boat.

    I don't have a faceplam account so I posted it here and on another site I visit but it does not get much traffic. I google searched the information stamped on the prop and its definitely for a motor around 70 HP. If my memory is correct the prop new was around $225 and with a hub kit to fit the particular motor its being installed on it put the price around $250.

    These pics are awesome. Agree with backlash though, best bet might be to have someone post this thread on the FKLRC(fishing kentucky's lakes, rivers and creeks) facebook page. Haven't been on there in a while, but it's a big group and have seen posts before of people returning found tackle boxes and such.
