Lesson learned the hard way

I'm pretty sure I recently read somewhere (OTW magazine) that you should always change the hooks in Bombers.

Well, I learned the hard way Saturday night. I hooked into something massive and on the 3rd run, the hook snapped. It didn't straighten, one of the 3 barb's completely snapped off the hook.

I've haven't been able to stop thinking about that fish. Lesson learned. CHANGE THE HOOKS!
