try wacky rigging them

Better for setting the hook?

I think my issue with setting the hook is just getting used to the feel of
them. With spinners and crankbaits, I typically find by the time I feel the
fish fighting, they're pretty much hooked(especially in the case of lures
with treble hooks). I reacted the same way I would with the with mostly
trying to reel it right in. Once I realized that's what I was doing wrong,
I had no issue landing them.

I've liked the texas weightless so I can pretty much cast into anything
without snagging. The water in this lakes is full of snaggable junk. In
fact, I can't even use a spinner or crank half the time because of the fear
of getting snagged.
