Question for you pluggers...
What's happenin' everybody?
Firstly, I'd like to thank everyone here for your insight and tips as I have caught more large bass in the three months of fishing since I discovered this site than I have in the sum total of the rest of my life.
Secondly, as I grow tired of trolling and chunking during these slow months, I can't wait for some new experiences come September and the fall migration. Nauset Beach (As well as the whole stretch to Race Point) is one challenge I have planned for this timeframe. I have spent countless days at the beach surfing and kicking it, but I've never actually fished it. However, that will all change soon.
Now, I know I want to throw eels and plugs in the middle of the night, but I am a lowly boat and chunk guy and I will have to learn the ways of solid eel and plug slinging. Trolling and chunking with a baitrunner make it very obvious when you've got a hit. From what I know, feeling a strike is the subtle art that one must learn to become a successful plugger, and herein lies my question:
What does the hit feel like? What do you do when you feel the hit? Is there some big secret or is it just experience that will lead to more hook ups?
