Why are your lurs and plugs "snapping off" when you cast ?

The old "swivel through the tip". I hear ya, but generally I feel that swivel when it hits the tip. Plus I "know" when its getting close. Gotta have the "feel".

for me. im usually in a hurry to cast again and the bail flips.

always take care of your tip and guides. make sure that they arent cracked. i cracked it four times or so and lost a few plugs.

of pulling on my line......when in doubt....
especially, when your in low light conditions...
i'll grab my line in front of my reel and making
sure the lure rides effortlessly up and down
....and isn't tip fouled->Before i cast.
