Me too Duff a few things I do are totally different then Dan that I'm going to give a shot...
- I fish my Bucktail by constantly bouncing it on the bottom and since these fish look up for for it, they never see it.. Dan said he hooks 90% of his fish on the bucktail and I hook 90% on the teaser and this explains that...
- I've have been tying a dropper loop 12 -18 inches above the bucktail with a 3 inch loop in it and thread the hook eye through the loop. After an hour or so of fishing, I notice my hook loop gets all twisted up like a cork screw and is constantly wrapping around the main line because there's not enough distance between them..... This should solve that issue and since there is more distance between the bucktail and teaser, I think you get a more spread out and natural presentation..
- Fishing too light a jig.. I asked Dan at the seminar what he typically fishes and it's 5 to 6 ounces or more if needed. I'm usually fishing 3 or 4 and often times I have to let out too much scope to stay in contact with the bottom. Two things here 1) Dan mentioned he likes to fish straight up and down which likely gives the bucktail better action and 2) You loose a lot of jigs constantly trying to feel the bottom with all that scope out.
Does that sound about right Dan?
