I remember one time my brother and I were fishing below Bagnall Dam for Hybrids.  My brother was getting ready to launch a spoon as far out as he could.  The line got a little tangled at the tip.  As soon as he released his cast there was a huge splash that the spoon made in the water about 10 foot in front of him.  Then in the distance up on the concrete pad that overlooks the spillway close to the dam we hear. 

"They got casting lessons at Wal-Mart!!"  

I busted out laughing so hard that I could not make another cast for the next 10 minutes.  My brother stood there with a sad/mad look on his face.   Something I will never forget. To this day anytime either one of us or others make a bad cast we shout that out to them. 

On another note we were at the same spot and my brother pulled out this new lead lure called the Man-O-Lure.  He says I just got a secret weapon and proudly tied it onto his line.  He then launches it across the water when all of a sudden his bail on his spinning reel closes.  SNAP!  His Man-O-Lure continues to its destination half way across the spillway in prime Hybrid waters.     

I just looked at him and

It happens. We were fishing with @duckydoty for walleye below power site a ways below taney. He insisted on us using his setups. I threw one of his expensive megabass minnows. Same thing happened bail closed I have never casted so far the thing went almost out of sight. After it snapped off. Ooof now I know where I got my lessons. I will remember that. Pat will get that next time she goofs up with the fly rod. Thanks for sharing  Anthony 😁.

I've had the snap off happen a time or two in my life, and also the cast too far that ends up in a tree, and one of my favorites is tying a knot, go to cut off the tag end, make a mistake and cut the main line and then watch the lure drop into the lake a disappear in the depths - of course it never happens with a top water.
