I know a guy from Preston,Lancashire called Jeff,travelled around Australia for a year,fished for eels one night and got his weight snagged,pulled the rod back hoping the compression would free the weight,he only has one eye nowadays

first time i tried fishing from a beach, my lead got stuck , i pulled and pulled until the nylon snapped, sending my rod and hand into my nose, didnt brake it but it bled for ages.....

I remember several accidents/incidents involving flying weights during mackerel season on Roker Pier and up at Shields

I've had the usual hooks in fingers were someones gone past and caught the line with there feet I've also lost a fair bit of tackle Top 3 sections of a pole, I left the pole in after not having much all day, ran round the other side to the phone and saw this "stick" going down stream. Few seconds later I realised there was no current in this lake and it was my pole Also lost the top section of a rod. I cast out, the line caught on something and snapped taking the top section with it No serious injurys luckily. Whenever I get snagged just turn around and walk forwards with the rod flat to the line.

Worse I have seen was a dog get tangled up in a set of feathers,, fook me every hook was set deep in the body of the poor dog, and yes the dog was brought to a vet, and yes the guy who hook the dog got some stick, biggest doggie he has ever caught

Almost happened to me once but with a 35gram weight. I was fishing a small lake casted to far side straight into some bushes after a few hard twitches and tugs it finally

come free, only to come shooting past me at eye level and missing my head by a few inches i actually felt the wind pressure when it went past my noggin. Quite lucky

really as i could of lost eye learn my lesson now though.

If you get snagged on something on the other side of the lake, pond etc. The best way to retrieve the end tackle is to place the rod tip under the water and walk back slowly or keep putting more tension on to the line ensuring the tip stays under the water.

 

By doing this you can be sure that the lead wont come flying past your head !! The water will slow the lead right down, allowing you to retireve the tackle by reeling in as normal.

You just get the footballers who fall backwards over a tree and drop a lawnmower on his foot
