Loosing a trophy was pretty heart breaking. Guys next to me were probably chuckling. .
Ill keep at it. This last loss may have been due when I tried to back off lever drag and momentarily put slack in line. I was trying to get a few winds on the other leader in water. If the two lines get wrapped, is it a done deal?
