Last summer I was out in the boat with a few youngin's. They were catching dogfish left and right, and yours truly was the one taking them off the hook. One kid hooked a huge dog in the fin, and it was so wrapped up in the line that I decided to cut it... stupid me didn't think to open the bale, so the rod was fully loaded up. When I cut the line, the barrel swivl shot at my face and shattered my (glass) sunglasses, leaving glass all over my face... gave me a good excuse to pick up some Costa Del Mars tho
