Talk about getting a lure back--last fall I was on Nolin throwing a RattleTrap on a flat in a wide/flat cove I like to fish. I threw past a brush pile that was in two or three feet of water at the time. As the lure came past I got a big hit from a big fish that immediately went into the brush. I saw the fish several times while trying to get him out but I finally broke off and thought the fish got away.

Then a couple months later I was fishing the same area and saw a brush pile (completely out of the water by then) with the skeleton of a big bass in it. Sure enough the bass still had my woodgrabber stuck in its mouth and the hooks were also stuck in the brush.
