I believe that they are always within striking distance of most catches. By this I mean that the "dinks" or schoolies are quick to hit and are not as wise as the cows.

For instance, I was on a local bridge roadway looking down on someone fishing from the rocks below. This guy caught about 20-30 dinks! Having a great time! But, what I saw and he did not was almost every hooked schoolie was being followed by a much much larger Fish. They just came up out of nowhere and seemed to almost escort the dinks in. And when they came to close to shore they dove back down into the deep. I watched this happen atleast a dozen times. At that time a light bulb when off and repeated the well know saying "Big Bait begets Big Fish".

There is just no other way to get past the dinks down to the Cows without getting the schoolies to hit.

Just my thoughts!!!

Tight lines to all!
