A fishing pole is like a shock absorber on a car. When something gets on your hook, your pole bends with the tension that it causes. Hopefully it is a fish and not a snag. But either way, your pole takes the stress by bending and not just straight pressure on you fishing line causing it to break. Now if it is a weed you need to reel your line in and remove the debris. Watch you pole when reeling in because it could be a fish the is just swimming back towards you. Watch your pole for any signs of life. Generally if you can't feel and pulling or jerking it is a weed. In that case reel it in and clean off your hook, weight, fishing line and pole. In any case watch your pole. It will tell your everything.Sometime after you hook a fish you can't tell if your fish is on your hook or not because nothing is happening to your pole. Well, you have either lost your fish or he is coming straight at you. When that happens you have to keep your fishing pole pulled straight up and reel very fast. You want to take up the slack and make your fishing pole to start bending showing there is tension on your line. If you don't take up the tension your fish may shake your hook out of its mouth.
By keeping tension on you line it makes your fish fight or pull harder to get away and this make the fish tired. Once the fish is tired you can reel him in. You need to be careful and have your tension set properly on your fishing reel. If you have the tension set to light your fish can do what ever it wants and may even spit or shake your hook loose. Now on the other side you can have your tension set to tight and then your fish can't make a run and to much stress is put on the line and your fish will break the fishing line no matter what your fishing pole does. 1/23/11 by Randy Wright Delete
