Default landing mishaps

What type of line? What size? How old is your line?

Sometimes i get the fish real close to landing and the line snaps. This

happens
a lot when i'm bymyself. I have to stop the drag and then the fish takes

off
and the line snaps. Should I be applying the drag differently on landing

the
fish. Crankbaits are lost as well as the fish.
