tying a know, 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.

I put the trailer on my favorite spinner bait and tossed it overboard thinking I had already tied it on.   Just this past summer.   😆

I have picked up a piece of scrap line from the deck, tied a bait to it, and done the same thing.   

One was a HIGH DOLLAR slow sinking jerkbait that I could have retrieved......had I not tossed it 20 feet away like an idiot. I actually didn't realize what I had done until I stood up, grabbed the rod and prepared to make a cast.  🥴

In the way back machine when I fished the Current 4 or 6 times a year, Iwould aggressively fish floating Rapalas. I often did best when they would deflect off of rocks on the bottom. If I didn't retie frequently I would often cast them off my line🙄. If they didn't sail off into the woods and actually landed in the water, I could often just wait for the bait to float downstream to me where I could net it and retie😉.

In my youth, I have been known to climb up one of those bluff walls to retrieve a bait or two😂.

I told my buddy.  If you are going to keep throwing them up in the tree you should aim lower so we could at least get them back.  😆    Couldn’t even reach them with a long handle net.

Fished one day with an OA member that doesn't post here anymore and he threw a jerkbait probably 15 feet up into a tree that was on a steep rocky bank where there was no way we could get to it.  He had to break it off.  It was still up there a year later.

May I suggest you have one of your kids do the shopping?    Or at least a younger person not suffering from dementia 😆  That’s the best help I can offer
