When you are fishing a tournament, you know its going to be a tough day, and a 4ish pounder gets off about a foot from the net...and 3lb 11oz total weight takes the tournament win...  Thats a tough feeling.

About worst thing that could have happened. On a positive note, you don't know for a fact that it was 4 pounds. Maybe it was 3.10?

In that case he would only need to catch a 2 ounce fish to win. He said 3 lbs. 11 ounces total weight won.

Yeah.  I just cant believe that the fishing was that tough.  It makes it that much worse.

Losing a fish trying to flip it in the boat and losing a big fish because of a bent worm hook hurts  too because they could have been prevented . Tough lessons to learn .

Or when your boater stabs at a fish that has a mouth as big as a toilet bowl, hit's her in the head with the net and you have nothing!!
