landing mishaps
Sometimes i get the fish real close to landing and the line snaps. This happens
a lot when i'm bymyself. I have to stop the drag and then the fish takes off
and the line snaps. Should I be applying the drag differently on landing the
fish. Crankbaits are lost as well as the fish. |

| What type of line? What size? How old is your line? |

| Take up knitting - immediately. Change your name to "Sweater Builder" Or "Gone
Blanketing". Knitting is in season all of the time and a lad won't be harassed
by a CO for improper yarn or technique. Those rabid raccoons can't get you in
the comfort of your asylum. Any broken knitting needles can be returned to
Walmart without a problem. They are all about customer service, you know. |

| You actually try to land a fish? You are dumber than I thought. You do not
land a fish, lad! You have to get right in there with the fish. As soon as
you think you have hooked that fish, jump right in there with it. Make sure
you only fish in water that is very deep. You will also need 20 lb ankle
weights wrapped around each ankle. And, do not wear a life jacket. You
want to make sure that you can get right down to the bottom quickly where
the fish is so you have the best chance of grabbing it with your hands.
Don't worry about getting your reel soaked as it will not be a problem.
Walmart will thank you because you will never bring back a broken rod or
damaged reel again using this method. Let us know how that works out for you. Jeff |
