she actually does really set the hook hard and does it with a very definitive side arm type of thing , she bent that poor hook out several times on larger fish and lost them and had to bend it back into place more than once , i told her to go a bit easier on them as that hook couldnt handle the set up and her at the same time with a fish on the other end
