BM never speeds, I am surprised

I like your story Dave, I like the way you wrote it

The evil VS counterweight is really making itself known this week. I snapped off a 2+ year old Beachmaster Danny that I fish almost every time out and have probably caught thousands of pounds of fish on. It was a particularly good plug, catching fish easily when no other plug would work. I've never hung the line on the counterweight and snapped it before till this incident and I've been using VS reels for years. I'm still in mourning over that plug and I feel a little betrayed by my silver 250.
