Milo - - - 20 minutes after you left - fish on, BM Danny. . . . reel starts skipping..feels like the bail is opening, I look down...but in the darkness don't see the defect...and bail is NOT opening

...felt like a moron after I realized what was wrong. ... and being in wavy-waist-high water, forget about finding the $%@ thing!!! Had to stop fishing....I'm sure it got real HOT after I left.

Good thing is, there was no one there to tell me that it did.
