You Need To Wait THIS Long Before Setting The Hook On A Bass…

[@Adam-em9rg]

I agree with my fishing teacher. Caught way more fish taking my time.

I give them a solid 1,2. I'm not jumpy, and am good at counting. Slow 2 seconds followed by a pressure set(I dont power set anything but a carolina rig) has gotten me the best hookup. I don't wait on a moving bite really, I just reel faster when it resists.

Waiting with a moving bait is sooo hard.

I just kinda slow down. Like, "is he really in there? Oh yeah"-*REELS LIKE A BEAST*

Gut hook?

[@wciii3591]

I thought about that also. I don't have as much problem as I used to, but still wait till the fish starts moving away, most of the time.
