    Default What did I do wrong?


    Today I missed probably 10-15 bites, end up with no fish to show and so frustrated. Could it be the fish too small and wind blew my line so I detected the strike too late? Or I set hook to hard or I just know nothing about fishing? I use 1/16oz jig head, and tried everything hop and drop along bottom, steady slow retrieve, pop and reel.

    Probably little bream “pecking” at it.

    Most times unless they are real small , Crappie don't nibble but inhale a bait .

    Try with just a small 8# hook, and little piece of worm to see what's down there .
