Definitely was a real "Butterfingers" of a day. That Chronarch D5/Waterloo Phantom combo was a really nice rig, too. And then, just a bit later, you almost lost a 2nd rig swinging for a hookset on that stringray; nice save ! It's having those kind of days that make us appreciate the really great days. Better days are yet to come. No shame ! Tight Lines !!!

I still fish with the Penn 4500SS spinning reel I found near Seawolf Park 20 years ago (the rod was broken). Hopefully yours will find a good new home. 😆😂🤣😭🤠

“S” happens!!! Thanks for sharing. I experienced the exact same thing 35 years ago on Pensacola Beach!

I tell you what?! That was certainly one of the most entertaining surf fishing vids I've seen. Props to you for sharing, as I know a lot of people wouldn't have been willing to show such a "SH" moment like that. Just glad you didn't lose TWO! Earned a sub in me.

😂😢 Sorry couldn't help but laugh but on repeat you spoke it into existence! 🥲🐟

Bruh happened twice😂😂 tightlines

HES BACK!

Now im gonna tie a sting to my rods when i go wading. 😅

Dude at least u got your reel back, lost my pole in the rod holder, looked up n it was ghost

Damn. That’s tough bro

Lmao that was a big fish

Bro where were you I’m gonna go look for that chronarch they’re so danm expensive on eBay now that I’m thinking about selling some of mine. Thankfully I was able to find 8 of these all in mint condition at a garage sale the old man let them go for 25$ each

RIP D7. Those chronarchs are hard to come around in good condition. My guy about to lose two in a day😂

Damn, there goes a few hundred. Little harsh on the hook set, but guess you already know that. Like to know what busted the line. The way it kept sucking to the bottom, stingray would seem to fit.

Why you sound like Steve-O in the intro😂

Is that crystal beach ?

Damnnnn bro 🤦🏾‍♂️

Dam sucks bout the rod but did anyone else notice that his bait bucket wasn't in his net at the end. Brian did u lose the bait bucket on the way in and not notice it?

Setting the hook to hard 😂😂

Dude.. Butter fingers..that hurts

Don't worry 😉, I've seen real Profisherman loose rods to a fish too. But that was the worst walk of shame I've ever seen. Sorry 😞 for your loss.

Glad is not just me. Today I lost a big umbrella. Just like you all I could do was watch it go down. That’s ok I got to go fishing.

Danggg, that day everything goes wrong.

Rough one to watch. Shit happens

I thought kinda sh!t only happened to me...and twice!

Maybe lay off the buttered biscuits before you wade😅😅😂

Pack up...your done 🤦🏿‍♂️ how you lose your rod

And by a ladyfish.....Damn!!!

Nothing worse than a wrapped line in the surf.

That has happened to me a couple times in my fishing, one time I was fishing with my buddy Claude presta in my brother's a striper pulled one Rod's out of the rod holder off the back I was able to dive in and retrieve the rod and land the fish 8 lb striper. Another time I was fishing off the pier at lake tawakoni night fishing for had about a 10-inch live shad on my hook 🪝 person I was fishing with looked at me like no way. Anyway I picked up a cast net to go try to catch some more bait about that time my rod bent over in the Bell started ding-a-ling-a-ling in the ride was jerking and was jerk off the pier about the same time I do have in the water and retrieve the rod landed my PB catfish 78 lb blue 💙 we measured her and weighed her and let her go back to make babies! This is your pops boy one time I was the great white fisherman, now you are boy he's not lost any dignity it happens to the best of us love you man
