A bad backlash with braid on a fully locked rod can spell trouble. The braid parts at the spool, and the lure goes clean out of sight. From beavertail when trying to hit the reef over Newton Rock, a steady south-west in my face, I've had casts that are comical and expensive, with the lure--always heavy wood---going halfway across Rhode Island Sound.
