Well, the only thing you can do is dust yourself off and get back to it. Its happened to us all, and especially me:o. The other day I had a non target fish tear up my swimbait. So, I put on a brand new Hudd. Its always nice doing that! On about the fifth cast I get bit, I rear back and my rod doubles just before my line breaks! And this happened right after my buddy put two toads in the boat in less than 15 minutes! So I not only lose a brand new bait, but I probably just lost a double d. I said a few choice words, then cleared my brain for a minute, put a new bait on, and went back to it. It hurts but it happens.

25 pound test and the drag locked down, thats the name of the game.
