it can happen...but i try my best to avoid tangles..if hes so good at it..tell him to fish the other side of the boat..and limit him to one rod only....if that fails..keep accidentally cutting off all his favorite jigs when your untangling...

phishy is right that it can and will fry up mono. It usually cuts mono when you're on a fish with spectra and they have mono. I have heard stories of braid cut anchor chains. All I know is it sure cuts your fingers if your not careful heheh.
