Hey Cisco this hook was deep but not to bad. The trick is using a bobber about the size of a golf ball. The 2 to 3 inch BG can move it around and bounce it under but cant keep it under. Then all of a sudden it goes down and 3 seconds later it's still not up time to lay the hammer down!! 8 to 9 times out of ten I jaw or lip hook them. I don't give them enough time to swallow it. Now if you do this without a bobber I also have had them swallow it as I didn't even know they took it. The bobber is the key. Then count to about 3 mississippi and set it!

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
