 Don’t you hate it when you lose a world record on an unforced error?

After completing my state record goals, I have been concentrating on line class world records. I hooked a big buffalo on 6-pound test and fought it for 30 minutes. I had the fish to the bank with my net in hand. I was so excited about the record that I thumbed the spool to lift the fish in the net. The small pop let me know that was a mistake. Six pound test line will not lift a 20 plus pound fish.  The fish slipped to the side of the net and slowly swam off. Another fish added to my “The one that got away” list. The fish looked very similar to this one. ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2021/08/full-107020-105796-ca708201_fc0f_4b2a_ac01_c3dacc13342d.jpeg)

I feel for you, I truly do. But isn't that more of a "forced" error . .. like, "too much force on the reel" type thing? ah, I know, I shouldn't be kicking you when you're down. That's just mean  But I have faith that you'll soon get another record fish on that 6lb test and LAND it this time!
