I left he boat launch about 4:00 was hoping to get there sooner,but I think everyone knows how it goes sometimes.My grandson was using my old coffee grinder.I heard a noise when I look over and saw it was bended over My son got it out of the pole holder made sure the hook was set and handed it to his son.After a few seconds It broke free of the hook.We decided to stay and try again another night.I got my first flat for this year, just a little over 13 pounds at 12:21 pm just before the moon came out. Another fisherman weigh it for me I thought it was bigger and weigh it again he was right lol. By the way we stole shortpole spot tied to same tree lol he was not using it and he got a real nice one there!.(thanks to shortpole for tips about were the brush and the hole was at) Said high to flathead40 and his wife as we were leaving.Yes I showed it lol
