This One Hurt

Yesterday I casted off my Roman Made Mother. The LCRA (governmental agency managing the lake I was on) started releasing a bunch of water literally within five seconds of it splashing down and as a result it could not be located and recovered. I won't lie, it sucked pretty bad watching her sail off into the drink... Spectrum was with me and happened to catch it on video:

Pretty good hang time right there.....I'm saying 4.7 seconds.

 

The Austin crew needs to have a "fence" build happy hour

 

Yeah, it stayed up for a loooong time. At least it felt that way. It was up there long enough for me to get on the trolling motor while it was still in the air and start heading its way as fast as I could....

 

Oh and I am grateful for Spectrum putting some music over this and slowing it down. I am pretty sure I made some sort of yelp/gasp when it broke off the line that would not be very flattering at all.

30 PF failed me twice above the knot also. Im pretty good about changing line out pretty much every trip not sure if I missed a kink or something but Im done with that line. I snapped a Hinkle and a saiko trout. I was able to retrieve the baits in my case.
