Thanks Don! Walk on by... you've got to be kidding me, I know you're quietely sticking them on a lake somewhere! It was a great week, I'm pretty pleased but I still can't believe that I actually BROKE one off! UGH!! Never had to feel that pain before, and hope it never happens again. I guess it was just my turn.
Breaking a big fish off sucks! I had one this year snap my wire leader at the boat in a tourny! I was pissed! How is an 8lb bass going to break a wire leader? To top things off, big fish of the tourny was 5lbs! grrr.

I bet that one hurt for sure Ryan. As soon as something like that happens in a tourney, you can't help but know at that moment it is just not your day. I Had one a few weeks ago that hit first cast of the day. I missed first hit, then missed 2nd hit, again close to the boat 3rd hit and broke me off (same cast) I guess that means 3 strikes I'm OUT! LOL. 1st time for me too. What sucked was It was a brand new bait just out of the pack. It was not a bed fish so I never got a good look at her. She realy wanted it and got it! LOL! I guess I should say I hope thats it for the snap offs for this year for us.(knocking on wood) LOL! LOL! Best of luck to you guys. Don.
