Perth-WRX.com - Fishing for cars!

Well a pretty wierd thing happend last night after dropping my mate Kristian off after fishing.

I will start the story off by saying that less than 2 weeks ago i re-spooled my penn850 up with new 25pound line
(this will be important later in the story)

I carry the fishing rods in my WRX and poking out the passenger window resting nicly on the mirror.

I pulled into kristians driveways and he exited the car. He then reached in through the window and pulled his rod out unknowing to us both that he had got tangled on his rod and my bail arm was over so as i reversed back i had no idea that i was still connected to Krisian somehow.

So as i was reversing i noticed a car about 500 meters away and progressed to pull out then went to drive of when all hell broke loose!!!!!! :shock:

As the car went past me in the opposite direction all i heard was PSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! REALLY LOUD NON STOP! I was thinking.. "what the hell is that noise???"
By the way, my WRX is really loud and i still heard it over the exaust!!

I look over at my fishing rod and notice line screaming off my rod at a very high rate of knots!!!!!

All i thought was "Oh no i have hooked Kristian!!!" So i pulled over but the line was still screamin off the reel! Things now were desperate!! It was getting down to the end of my line and there was no way i was putting my hand near line coming off the reel that fast! I thought ...
"oh no maybe its caught in the engine some how???" I then turned engine off and it was still screamin off the reel then finally it just stopped :shock:

I got out the car and noticed that the line was 300+ meters down the road :shock:

As i backed out the line must of been connected to Kristian somehow and the car drove through it! I was doing 60 heading east and the other car was heading west doung 60! Thats 120 klm per hour run!!!

I had a good chuckle about it until i noticed that the new killer line i payed $40+ for was now off the reel :lol: then noticed that it cut through 2 of my mouldings and burnt the paint on the piller :cry:

Oh well things could be worse... a motorbike could of come though and cut his throat open on the fishing line, the line could of spooled me to the knot and then i would of had a broken fishing rod :cry: or Kristian could of been badly hurt from a fishing hook ripping through him at 60+klm per hour.
