Think maybe this is where fishermen get the reputation of 'stretching' things a bit??  If your a bass fisherman and use a bait casting rig, have to have seen this MANY times.. Thanks for sharing , I've never seen one. Your not gonna get me to admit to that!

I don't think some of you understand what happened. It's not like I just casted it and got a backlash. I know what I'm doing. But it's kinda hard to prevent one when your lure slaps a tree on your back swing right as you are coming forward which is what happened. I've been using bait cast rigs for 17+ years so I know what I'm doing. It was just a poorly placed tree that I swore wasn't behind me when I started my cast.

not even close to a trophy backlash anyone can do that. Its a trophy when you cant see the reel under all the line

No I've had some worse ones when I first started out but this on was pretty bad. When it was all said and done I lost about half the line on the reel haha still managed to catch a couple fish on it today though

I can backlash toilet paper. That is one of the funniest lines I have ever read on the TFF.

Glad to see I'm not the only one. But that little snarl? That's so amateurish. Doesn't hold a candle to my small ones. My big ones jam the reel. But I'll keep practicing, I'll get the hang of it one of these days. The way things going so far that day's not going to be too soon.
Fishing, a man knows a serenity of soul and peace of mind that he finds in doing nothing else, and it makes no difference whether or not he catches anything. The mind of a true fisherman is not on petty subjects.

I think people are just funning you, regardless of what they say, everyone has had things like that happen.
