When you set your hooks while bobber fishing, do you set the hook until the drag kicks in or do you put your thumb on top of the spool and then set the hook. Normally I do not put my thumb on top of the spool, but I do tend to set my drag a little on the light side in case my leader has been nicked. I use a 10.5 foot pole for jig and bobber so there is not much line in the water, usually, to take up unless I have had to make long cast.
