Probably had alot of stuff bouncing around inside the hull and whatever it was hit the mount hard from the inside. That is a bummer. I never really thought about a flush mount actually being ripped out. Makes me want to think twice before deadsticking with an iron. It would be bad to get flipped over AND have the flush mount ripped out by a big fish. I do however exercise care when setting the drag.
