I had a lure come back at me at high speed this morning after I'd pulled for a break off a bit of shrubbery. Fortunately it was soft rubber, the hook was buried and I was wearing wrap around polaroids. But at least I know what an assasination victim hears just before the bullet hits.

Fortunately all I had was a slap around the face with a bit of wet rubber. High court judges and members of the House of Lords actually pay good money for that :D

But do they pay extra if it's wet with a hook attached? :D

This is a signature, there are many signatures like it but this one is mine

Not necessary Merlino it can shoot out of the water but at less speed.

I always turn to face away from the water and angle the rod slightly, so that if the weight comes shooting out of the water it will pass by instead of being aimed at me. Obviously I also make sure there's no-one nearby who could get hit instead.
