Amen oh buddy....went back to the good ole rubber worm and Rooster tail..
The only changes I made this year which has put good fish in the boat..is treat every bite like it's a 5 pounder instead of a 1 pounder..I set the hook harder but not crazy enlough to snap the line on a hook set..but every bite I visualize a 22 inch 5 pound fish and set the hook accordingly..it's been working when I get a hit..Also..7 of my 8 rods are back to mono..12 pound test.
Yep..back to the basics.
