I have not set the hook on fish in years.....this has really been my method since I started using JDM rods.....6 years back. These hooks are penetrating the bony part of their mouth. Yesterday I had several deep hooked fish but nothing severe. My son is going with me tomorrow and I am pretty sure his jig heads came in and he will be using the same as me. Going to be interesting to see if he is doing the same....of course that is assuming we find some fish. The shellcracker may be done and the bluegill and redbreast were nowhere to be found yesterday after the cold front. My nephew will be fishing Little Red River this weekend using the JDM jig heads with the Trout Magnet. The trout I have caught this spring...and it has been a lot....I did not have this issue. But my hookup rate for trout went way up. Be interesting to hear about his hookup rate when he gets back.
