What is the recommended thing to do when the bass swallows the hook. I've

Thanks!



Cut the line, do not try to remove the hook if it is out of reach (past
the throat)

The best thing to do in the future is try to reduce this, start setting
the hook faster, don't let them run with the bait, or use a circle hook,
or start drop shotting more
