I pray a fish doesn't hit the fly exactly then, as I would not stand a

The only thing I hate worse than that is when the line flips over the
tiptpop in such a way that it makes it look like I somehow miraculously
unstrung the top guide, wrapped the line around the tip, then restrung it.

Hey, we're all human, some of us more so.
