Sometimes at the canal when the tide is up you catch those damned bushes behind you. The result is something similar to the video.

I did exactly that with a conventional set up - instant waste of $50 worth of braid. The guy next to me was laughing so hard, I thought he was going to choke. I suppose I would have had the same chuckle if it weren't me.
