>>1140841It's been too long since my last one. I usually go for them once a year. My problem is I get a lot of follows and no hook ups. Sometimes I will raise 10-15 fish in a day but fail to trigger a bite, or pull the bait away during the strike. I've been working on figure 8s and trying to switch directions during the retrieve to get more strikes.

I think I just have to spend more time going after them. I also prefer river fishing to lakes. Fish location is alot more predictable but success is more related tp water levels.
