Pond Boss Forums FISH & FISHING Sunfish-Including Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass Sexing Redear Sunfish?

I miss a lot of fish and have the pellet stolen frequently, my GSH instantly start pecking on the pellet when it hits the water. My hook up ratio is pretty low as the pellet covers the point on the hook and acts like a circle hook, but when I do catch a fish they are almost hooked in the upper lip.
