some of my bigger fish that I have caught were hooked after a slight line
twitch and a solid hook set, I've also managed to foul hook quite a few
panfish, and airlift quite a few dinks, I believe Joe slapped me in the
chest with a dink fish in FLA that he airlifted to the boat : )

I have fished Florida, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, Texas, Tennessee,
Alabama, Georgia, Missisippi, Arkansas, Arizona, Nevada, and California
for bass.....I find no noticeable difference in the strikes. Sometimes
its "violent", sometimes it's soft and almost non detectable, and
everything inbetween. It depends on the lure, the presentation, the
weather, the time, the season, and probably a dozen other things I
failed to mention! Most of my bass fishing was in California, and the
bass out there are not much different from anywhere else...except
"bigger" grin! Never really thought about "sucking" bass...but oftened
used the term "mouthing" it, especially worm fishing.
