FO, Thanks for the compliment. The safety leash hooks up to the reel not the harness or the person fighting. That way if you fall over you simply push the "L" hooks out of the reel connected to the harness and your free. If you tie yourself to a line you become part of the load bearing system which makes it extremely dangerous and exceptionally hard to get out of the water with the boat going one way and the fish pulling the opposite way. The connection of the angler to the rod and reel by "L" hooks is the safest way to fish big fish. Safety first.
