Remember me mentioning the "Mystery Fish"? This is what was happening to me,
except that I was told that gar had rounded teeth and the line would usually
roll right off.

Thank You Ronnie... now I think I know I'm not crazy. Just a gar... just a
gar...

A few casts later out in deeper water something thumped the worm and I set
the
hook. A strong fish pulled for a few seconds then my line went slack.
When I
reeled in it was cut - no fray anywhere , just a smooth cut, like a gar
tooth
cut it or it hit something sharp.
