I asked about stump pullers a while back. Somebody suggested taking a few
wraps around a boat cleat and backing off the boat. With four diagonal
wraps the line just slipped around the cleat when I tried it with some Stren
Super braid. I had to do a couple over and back ties to get it to work.
Then it broke at the cleat instead of at the bait. I think I'll stick with
my piece of shovel handle wrapped with duct tape.
