That sucks, but don't beat yourself over it.
I lost a tornament with my partner the last minute of the tornament last year. We had told each other knowing we only have a minute left and neither of us had a hit the entire day and we made the last minute cast and I watch my opponets line go tight and start moving, no way, he landed a 14" bass and beat me out of more than $500.00 the last minute. The sad thing about it was I caught a legal 14" bass and took pictures of it and forgot to weigh it cause I was caught up in the momentand even though with proof it was disqualified, but Inew I really won but they said I lost.It still hurts, but we have a nother one to go to when I go down to fla. in May. It still haughts me as I am consistantly reminded by meself and my opponet.
Hang in there.
