Here's what works for me:
(1) Use a standard length leader. Last night I used a longer than usual length leader and a few times I had a problem detemining when to stop reeling in my lure.
(2) Fish with a teaser. I look and listen for the teaser coming out of the water near the end of my retrieve. That's how I know the location of my barrel swivel. Always use a standard length line on your teaser.
(3) Finally, listen for the sound of the barrel swivel hitting the rod tip. You should never never cast without knowing the position of your barrel swivel. I've found that using a teaser is the best way to "see" my barrel swivel on a dark night.
