>>1014528I've always let cats take the bait for about 10-15 seconds. They like to gently grab before they really get it. You can either leave your bail open or set your drag looser so there's little resistance. Also what the other anon said about circle hooks. You don't want set the hook like normal.
>>1014541One time I was working this little mouse topwater in a pond fucking with a turtle and I just let it sit there for a sec cause I was gonna get a video of me fucking with it and while I was trying to get my phone a bass blew up on it. Pretty sure it was this fish.
>>1014551I'm honestly too scared to trespass around here because all the good ponds are on farmland and I don't like being shot at.
