It is exstreamly rare that a "hook" hangs in rocks,

Rodney said it, so it must be true. All the times i have lost a hook
in the rocks (ie: Round Valley) must have been my imagination. My
bad...Sure you can see down 30+ feet and see exactly what you are hung
on, but my eyes musta been playin' trix on me. I've lost all kids of
stuff to whatever it is that 'looks' like rocks over there. Maybe I'll
get a sample and have Rod ID whatever this bottom cover is for me.

No, at least jajwuth hasn't posted anything about it. I just double
checked my killfile. I had to reformat the hard drive a few months back,
and so far Long-shot is the only one to have gotten plonked.

About the rocks......if ya ain't bouncing the bait off the rocks, then
ya ain't fishin the bait right! Who cares if ya losse a few lures that
way, no matter if it's the hook or the weight! If you'er trying not to
get "snagged", then ya ain't really fishing where the fish live. grin

I said it was "rare" to actually get a hook snagged in rocks,, a hook,,
not the weight,, I'm sure you were fishing with a bare hook, or just a
soft plastic on it in, 30 feet of water, (yeah right) perhaps you were
using 4# test,, then you might break off before getting a "hook" loose
from rocks. Hooks do not bite into rocks, most are small enough if the
line can get through the cracks, then the hook can, now a bead, or a
swivel, they can easily get stuck in rocks, but mostly you weight hangs
up in rocks, well at least they did, we have pro's fishing rocky lakes
and pre fish and fish up to 3 tournaments on the same weight,, they look
like hell after three weeks of the rocks, but they are still snagless.
These pro's are not snagging their hooks either.


If you don't believe me, ask Bassdozer, some of you know him I think.

You need to get out and fish more Rodney. Either that or fish some
different types of water. Maybe you don't have the patience to let a
Senko drop on a wacky rig into 30 feet of water on 10 lb fluorocarbon,
however I do. Most of the time it is 13 to 15 feet or shallow riprap.
Is riprap rock Rodney? I just want to make sure...
