I was fishing T-ville one evening and got my texas rigged worm hung in a tree. I tried to break the 17lb line by pulling on the rod. It wouldn't break so me being a genius I turn the trolling motor on high and turn to the right. You know put a little extra pressure on it. Sure enough just like I wanted, it popped loose. Only problem was 3/8 bullet sinker was just that. A bullet. It smack me square in the side of head and almost knock me off my feet. I had to sit down as I was feeling a little off balance. Last time I try to avoid disturbing a spot!
