Well , I am no expert. I was fishing with a buddy a few years back . I was catching them pretty good , he was not catching any.
I started watching his rod tip. He was getting bit with no reaction. I asked to see his bait. He held the jig in front of me , and
I told him to look away. I gently thumped his jig. I asked, " did you feel that ? " he replied " Yes" I asked if he had felt anything
like that while fishing, He replied " yes" I told him to set the hook when he did. He started catching fish, He said " I thought they would
hit harder"
Some folks just don't get it.
