Subject: Curing a bad
strike
We were hosting an
excellent trout fisherman who learned a good strip strike with which to hook
tarpon. Problem was that every time a fish took his fly, he reverted in
line with his instincts and raised the rod sharply as though hooking a
trout.......He lost every one.
Then I figured out
a way of breaking this habit, which worked
fine.
What do you
suppose I did ?
