Friday, 60 feet of water, huuuuuuuuge school of baitfish, I give my 8' net a good hurl, and it opened nicely, unfortunately the end that was cinched around my wrist flew clean off my hand. My dad tried to back down on it so I could grab it but it went down too quick. Just watched in disbelief.

Was a nice throw too, so there's likely a bunch of very confused baitfish under the net on the bottom.......

:(

That is all.

Throwing the net in 60 feet! How deep was the bait?

No heavy lures on the boat?

The bait was all over the surface, getting chased by blues underneath.
