Spent a couple of hours yesterday working on swim jig technique. Was throwing a 6th Sense 1/2 ounce swimjig with a flap-tail trailer. Had 4 bites and couldn't get hooked up. One was a big fish that just pulled off after heading to deep water.
I trimmed the weed guard, shortened the skirt. Still was missing fish. I decided to let them eat it more (count to three before I set the hook), but I did't get bit again to try it that way.
Any advice? Was throwing it on a 7-foot HVY rod with 20-lb Tatsu.
