Been there, done that! I have dropped them over the side, had them break off and keep sailing into the distance during the cast, but the most “painful “ loss of a lure happened when I drifted into a beautiful stretch of trout water in a Jon boat, was reaching for my rod with a Mepps spinner tied on and as I was securing the oars, I hit a rock which caused the oar to fall onto my rod…causing the lure to break off and swing into the air and with a gentle splash, sink gently to the bottom. I must have been 13 or 14 and only brought ONE lure 🤦🏼♂️
That may have been the start of my obsession to bring more stuff than I could possibly lose without capsizing…
1 for fishing
1 for the tree
1 for the lily pads
1 for the submerged log, rock, etc
I tend to be aggressive in spots I shouldn’t be, whether golfing or fishing.
It got better (mentally) once I adopted the mindset that I didn’t “own” that lure or golf ball…I was merely renting it. 😂
Better luck next time!

Rent does keep going up though don't it it's amazing what they charge for lures now a days I'm surprise that more criminals aren't out robbing people for their fishing gear but I did have ALL my gear stolen by some junkie son of a friend 🇺🇸🎣👎😂
