The art with this little nugget Jon, is to fish semi slack line, and tension the line with a light hanger, not fished on the floor! It will add tension to the line, but still semi slack, and the bow ( Arc ) effect, is your friend, until they hit the stop! As you can still get drop backs, this is true, This to me is the most sensitive set up I have ever seen, Beep, beep beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepppp!
