Hooked only 4 "big" (i.e., made real runs) beach fish in June. Lost 3 of them. One to a crushed hook, one to a leader/hook wrap (with which the fish unhooks itself), and one to leader break after the fish found a rock....although more likely it was stupidity on my part for being lazy and not changing my shock leader (after experimenting with only #20 Fluoro during a full moon and ignoring the inevitable nicking just above the quick link after multiple small fish).
Strangely, as much as I hate dropping a special fish I find losing them drives me to fish more than catching them. So it is all good in the long run.
