Default Re: My new nightmare...

Sorry to hear about the lost beast, you'll get him next time!

On a side note, are the leaders you are using multistrand? On multistrsnd leaders, if just one or two of the strands break the leader drastically loses its strength. That's why I prefer single strand. At least the fish shook the lure. I use fluoro, and had a bite off the other day so I may be adding a short piece of wire to my setup. Out of countless numbers of pike, I have only had two biteoffs (one of them I retrieved the lure and retried and caught the fish), so it's rare for me, but I don't want to risk it again.
