[QUOTE="svnmag, post: 364800, member: 330"] Below vid does not match MPE. I remove all split rings from the nose as I always use a clip. IMO the clip should match a loop knot without steel abrading the line. I seldom fish a crank with a steady retrieve; even "deep runners". 98%: I'm getting the lure to depth and initiating the "Chicago" retrieve at various tempos.:) IME a loop/etc to split ring will cause a bait to randomly veer to one side as if extremely out of tune. IMO; the vid should've concentrated more on real time action as opposed to slow motion. There are subtle differences in lure action which are lost in slo-mo. I surmise the vid was intended for successful trolling. I'd rather fuck a sandbag. Chicago retrieve again: The low rod tip goes DADA DADA dum [B]stop[/B] DADA DADA dum[B] stop [/B]DADA DADA dum [B]stop[/B] DADA [B]stop [/B]DADA [B]stop [/B]etc. Watch your line as most strikes occur during "[B]stop" [/B]and felt during "[B]DA"[/B]. No shit. Also monitor the spool for loops. You're playing with a lot of slack. This is all spinning tackle stuff. Even as a "drummer" I don't have the dexterity to perform this shit for real with a bait caster even with appropriate sized Husky Jerks. Watch your spool and know how to clear a loop without opening the bail.
