only way this could be better, is if you fell in, got it, and landed fish floating on your back...
good job

That was awesome! I'd hardly describe that as a fail...great recovery.

Funny video. This happened to me about a week ago down in Port A when I set the hook on a gator trout. I'm now I'm the market for a new squarebill setup

Thanks guys, the only reason I moved so fast is it is my new favorite combo, my old favorite combo is at the bottom of a river because I dropped that one when I tripped on the back of my buddy's boat. I wasn't gonna come home and tell the wife I need another new fishing rod....lol. About 8 years ago I had a smallie do the same exact thing only it was on a buzzbait, got that one back and landed the fish as well.
On a side note a 5lber in MN is a pretty big fish, obviously there is bigger but our state record is only 8lb 15 oz

Same thing has happened to me and amazingly like you, I was able to grab the rod before it sunk and land fish fish. Good video!
