>>2489049I know that feel bro. Tonight hooked into what probably would have been a personal best pike - a surprisingly heavy fish probably 20 lbs in an area that normally has fish nowhere near that weight.
Fought the fucker for 3 minutes and he was still making huge runs and then my split ring bent out and he got away with my treble but at least I got my lure back.
Still super pissed off. That was supposed to be the first fish on my new lure. I even had a dream about split rings the other day - subconscious trying to tell me.
