BWAAHAHA fishing a small stocked trout pond in BC i used to fish, in front of 30 plus witnesses a blue crane follows my cast across the pond and grabs my bubble (clear are the only ones i use) and takes off in full flight!! All i could do was loosen my drag all the way off, just before he spooled me now across the pond and into the forest i gave a slight pull hoping he'd let go before he got whiplashed and managed to pull it free, lost the fly but recovered the bubble nearly 300 yards later through the trees and across the water, i'll never forget that.
