Jerk Bait Problem

[Quillback]

So are you getting bit on the pause, or when you are working the bait?

Getting bit on the pause. Bait is sitting and when I get ready to work it I feel the weight.

I use 10# braid, 12# flouro leader. 6'6" medium action berkley lightning rod.  I have to use pliers to get the hooks out. I am weird, I can't help it.

Do you see the line jump or move off, or is it you don't know they are there until you move the bait?  It sounds like they are grabbing it right when you start to move it, maybe give it a longer pause.  

Could be just a weird bite that day too, next time you go, they might be inhaling it.

Thanks for your advice Quillback. Going Friday. Will try longer pause and see what happens.
