I was trolling into the chop with my daughter driving some years ago before I has an autopilot. I ran big boards then and while I was taking off a fish we caught, my daughter was texting and before you know it there was a board off our bow and one astern...lol. The board tether austern popped a rod out of its holder and in the drink. When we got straightend out we had a release on that board that went aft. Guess what we caught? The freaken rod that went over..lol
