Hi Bucket Mouth:

I've only fished Waubesa a couple of times and wasn't impressed. But, my
wife swears that it used to produce quite well. So, I'm not sure what the
deal is. I was considering giving it another go before writing it off
completely.

Those Gamakatsu's are quite nice and deadly sharp, aren't they. I hadn't
considered upping to a 5/0 but will certainly do so if braided line doesn't
solve my problems.

Thanks for all the tips guys!

JP, do you ever fish Waubesa? I like about 35 minutes from Madison. I've
only fished it a few times, and did so-so. I hear some good things about
that lake.

Anyways, back to your question.....the others have pretty much answered
it. But another thing you can do to increase hookups is switch to a 4/0
or 5/0 hook. Gamakatsu Superline worm hooks are by favorite. Nice wide
shank and they are laser sharp!

Hope this helps some.
