    Wow, that's crazy and very sad. Did you read the rest of the article? It said five guys on his soccer team were struck by lightning that Sunday. That's one unlucky group of guys.

    Man that's freaky, but I have to say I've had a couple close calls when pulling out snagged lures.

    A year or two back, a man fishing alone in a boat in Missouri drowned, and someone told me his bass jig had came back out of the water and either knocked him out or made him lose his balance to cause him to fall out of the boat. Yes, everyone needs to aim their snagged lure or sinker toward a safe direction.

    How bizarre is that?? Man, makes me think of how many times I'd be bass fishing with a plastic worm and get it hung in an over hanging limb. You pull it out of the limb and that bullet weight comes wizzing by your head at 100 miles an hour.
