I had the mother of all backlashes Wednesday when some cottonwood pollen got on my line and then stuck in my line guide when I cast. The only way I was able to get it out was to cut it. 3 Quote

All my Ash trees are dead from the Emerald Ash borer, why couldn't they go after the cottonwood instead. 3 Quote

KVD braid cutters in my bag.The Rapala scissors are in my TV remote holder so i can sit on the couch and be comfortable during the surgical procedure. 2 minutes ago, Finesse Wayfarer said: Same here.

XpressJeff Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 We all must use the same pair of scissors too! Just for the record, they cut braid pretty well too when you lose your mind. 1 Quote

pondbassin101 Posted June 9, 2017 Posted June 9, 2017 That's one nasty backlash. How did you manage to backlash so deep? it looks like its at least half of your line Quote

Super User NHBull Posted June 9, 2017 Super User Posted June 9, 2017 Somehow that makes me feel better ? 1 Quote
Super User Darren. Posted June 9, 2017 Super User Posted June 9, 2017 Yessiree, you've had a MOAB. Scissors are your friend there. Gotta hate those trees and such behind you when you least expect them to be there. 1 Quote
