Been there. I remember having an albright knot catch a guide on my surf rod ...I was casting a 5oz jig and boy did I waste a 50 dollar spool of braid....giant nest.
Oh man that makes me feel better.... a few months back I casted out a brand new $20 imitation eel, and my knot failed when it snagged on the guide. Saw it go out into the twilight and splash on the water. First cast with it, and I had bought it earlier that day. The same cast my buddy snagged a brand new 5oz jig, and lost it that was mine... it was my fault for using the wrong knot, and too long of a leader, but that’s how you learn I guess. *knocks on wood*
