#547, "RE: Swimbait impressions"
In response to In response to 3


  

          

Kelly,
I'd watch out with that triple hookset. Bass don't have very hard mouths, so one solid hookset is enough to drive it home. Especially with the open hooked baits like swimbaits. If you keep swinging on em, eventually you'll rip a big hole in their mouth, or you'll rip the hook out. What I usually do is just give em one solid sweep, then keep the rod pinned there and crank em to the boat. I don't like it when they get their head turned... As long as you can keep em facing the boat, you should be in good shape. Then again, even the 800L couldn't turn rob's fish, so sometimes you just gotta go along for the ride and hope you've pleased the fish gods that month.
-Brian
