We got lots of bites that we missed. We discovered that when reeling in the lure, if you felt a nibble, if you slowed way down to let them take it, your chances of hooking up was much greater.
When this happens to me and I miss the set or pull it out. I feed it back to him by giving him 3' to 5' of line. I watch for a take and if I don't see it then take in the slack real slow he seems to be there a lot of the time. I am trying to imitate an injured minnow falling in the column. Don't know if that is what they think or if it actually looks like one but it seems to work for me quite often.
