Sounds nasty, he's been lucky not to have been killed.
Think the person who done that is more than a nugget.
He wants his rod wrapped around his neck.

Could happen to anyone even a good angler snapping off and hitting someone with a lead, the lad my have not been a "nugget". I am shocked more anglers dont get hurt both in winter and mainly summer from flying leads and end tackle.
Sounds like he is doing ok anyway if he fished and won the comp

Totally agree mate. I was nearly hit in the last open BUT was only annoyed because the lad wasn't using the right set up (shockleader).
shock leader
shock leader
shock leader is a length of 50 lb -- 70 lb line 30--- 40 foot long to absorb the power of the of cast so it does not snap when casting which also needs to checked on regular basis for abrasions and week spots due to regular casting which SHOULD BE USED AT ALL TIMES IF MAIN LINE LES THAN 30LB
hope lad that got hit is ok ,a got hit once luckily it was on hand was not able to move fingers for bout an hour and sore for a long time

mmmm
read post number 15 on this thread
would you say that, unless you are pendulum casting and there is a chance that your lead and gear might go flying down the beach and damage somebody there really isnt any point in having a shockleader.
