For trout fishing.......CATCHING.....with soft plastic baits.
When do you "set the Hook"? First strike? Second strike? Third strike? ......Or should I say "TAP"? Do you "Set the Hook"......with a hard quick action? What works best for you? |

yeah i agree with both the guys.. especially if your throwing braid, cuz you don't want to rip there lips off. But i like to still set a solid hook though. Its hard to explain.. I guess its more of a short pull and not a jerk if that makes any sense. BTW braid helps you cast farther and easier to get good hook sets on those corks at long distances.

On trout I really dont put a hard hook set...Its moslty a quick pull up ward......Their mouth is soft so you just need to place the hook in it.....I dont find I miss many fish so I think my system for me works......

Seriously, you're hookset depends on what bait your throwing and how the fish are biting. Most baits you set the hook when you feel the first tap.... Baits like Corky's and topwater, feel the thump, tighten up till you feel pressure, then set the hook..... Last edited by Capt. Ryan Rachunek; 08-07-2009 at 03:27 PM. |

It all depends.....sometimes you dont have to cause they're slamin it, other times they just pick it up & you have to set hard. Was fishin Prien in Jan with sand eel & had a thousand lite & I mean lite taps, caught a couple till I figured it out. When you felt the lite tap you had to drop rod tip then just ease back in a slow sweaping motion till your rod loaded up. If you set the hook you missed every time. Once I figured it out I limited out in 30 mins & caught & released another limit. & yall know as well as I do that its natural reaction to set quick. It took patience!
