He told me that wasnt brush that was fish!!! lol He told me that you keep reeling and when your jig stops just keep reeling, it will either start to pull and you set the hook or you will be hung up. I have not got to go again but I am anxious to get out there.

Sometimes in cold water the fish picking a jig up on the fall will not strike just line gets heavy. The fish were hitting up here that way yesterday.
