Set the hook, keep the line tight. I fish with a lot of inexperienced fishermen, more often than not if you set the hook and keep the line tight, you get the fish. If no hook set and slack line, good bye fishy. Obviously there are times when we do everything "right" and still the fish gets away, that is why it is called fishing, not catching. My two cents. Take care all and Merry Christmas.
