B-Mac,
What's up, long time no hear from. Yeah I've been there with the old spoon frustration blues myself. Are you swinging them things on the old local river, if so let me know so we can meet up and fish.I'll be down there probably around 10 or 11 this morning before the game. Now this is easier said then done but works awesome, at the end of your swing when you feel the strike lower the rod as low as you can and slowly pull your rod tip across the bank side your standing on. If you can control the urge of just setting the hook hard and do this I think you might be in business. E-mail me. Jeff
