Yep. No yanking your pole. This is not bass fishing. |

Yep. No yanking your pole. This is not bass fishing. This is one of the best tips you can remember. I tried to tell this to my buddy and his wife the other day and they still kept trying to yank them out. I gave up and just kept reeling in fish as they kept reeling in empty hooks! |

When You Yank, You will usually take the Hook Right Out of the Fish's Mouth. As SkyJay has said many times, "Just Reel".  I have seen many People on Boats out in the Deep Water & they Reel in "Empty Hooks" and They Wonder & Ask "Why Are They Reeling in Empty Hooks ?". Most of them are a Bunch of Amateurs or Know Nothing about Fishing in a Boat in the Deep Water. I Just Smile & Shake My Head at Them & Tell Them: "DON'T YANK & Maybe You Will Catch Something !"   |

Us former Yankees tend to yank.
That's why you let circle hooks do their thing. As a fish tries to run and spit it out, it comes out and lodges in the jaw due to the bend and shape. If all goes right.
It was a hard habit to kick.
