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![]()
i think that was the week before alan mate
whats a shock leader for ?
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
you would be suprised how many peaple dont use a shockleader i thonk if you dont take all the precautions and have a snap off and your sinker hits somebody you should be done for gbh or if the worst happens manslaughter
