You crack off a cast and 10 min later you see a Kahawai madly jumping because its hooked up on your lost gear!! http://www.paniasurfcasting.org http://www.surfcaster.co.nz

But you love it when the gear its trailing tangles in your line and you get to reel it in

I've snagged my own busted off gear before and dragged it in, but never with a fish still on http://www.paniasurfcasting.org http://www.surfcaster.co.nz

Yeah aint that a hard case. Ive done that with Kahawai, and reeld in a coupla bustoffs/ snagged lines with Gurnard attached. Primo. The Kahawais always a classic tho how they continue to jump as to say haha f##k you. Dumb buggers don't even no theyve gottin away.

LOL yeah that is really fustrating with kwhai, had the same thing happen to me but caught the little bugger again with the hook caught in the swivel eye of my lost rig. Don't know how it stayed there cause the bugger tried to do the same thing!
