Alright fellas. I was trying to do my own research, and I'm certainly going to consult with Jeff next time we go out, but I'm finding conflicting information about how to set the hook.
Since many of us are fishing the same water and I believe using similar methods right now, I feel this thread to be most appropriate.
Several other threads say to jerk em with all you got and other guys say they barely do anything and you'll tear the lips out. One thing is certain, they are all using different methods.
So I've been getting as many bites as Jeff but only landing 1/3 of fish. 2 poling with double jigs - tight lines. How do you hook up? (first time out I was using 6ft bass rods, next time out 9ft crappie rods and less successful.)
