I must be lost in the past tonight..... I was just thinking about a time when I was out Shad fishing on the American at Rossmor Bar.... I hooked up on a medium size Shad and decided to pressure 'im in for a quick release. The older 7 wt, Lamiglas rod (fiberglass) snapped off just above the grip with the fish about 10 yards out. Being the superman fisherman that I was, I dropped the grip/reel into the pocket of my waders and continued to fight/release that Shad. Then spent the rest of the day casting/landing more fish (WOW!!! This guys good )

Thinking that I had accomplished something vedry special, I went to Kiene's and told someone there about this event. Their response was something like, Oh yeah,.... that's happened to me too......

I was wondering how many times this has happened to others...??? Anyone else care to admit something like this??
