I got the hat without trying in under 20 casts. The +5 line has eluded me the entire time. As has winning the comp, but I think I may need to get someone to fly me around on a rocket to win.
Yeah, I got the boots too, and 2x Rockhide Strongfish, and still no +5 line. The guy I was fishing with last week got two of them in a row, and no hat that he was fishing for.
Turtle a lot of people have put a lot of time and energy into getting their LFH. There's nothing wrong with celebrating it by coming here and making a thread relating to it. You need to relax and stop the LFH hating. Spend your free time doing something else.
