This helped me! Newbie fisherlady with the same problem as OP. Thank you for all the advice!

It happened to often to me , so I bought lure savers that slide down the fishing line and free the lure and also the long handled saver that's used for Alabama rigs . Side note : ever since I purchased those I have not needed them . Lol
