Solving The Problem Of Short Striking Fish
If you like to use live worms as bait, then you have invariably run into the problem of 'short striking' fish. A 'short striking' fish is a fish that bites off the end of your worm, without ever reaching the hook. This is a big problem, and a lot of worms are lost without the angler ever getting a chance to hook the fish. The biggest reason that this happens is that in order to present a live worm in any kind of natural manner, a large section of the worm must be left "free" of the hook. So, how do we solve this problem so that we can present live worms in a natural manner and also be able to hook fish that attempt to bite the tail end of the worm?
The most effective way of solving the problem of short striking fish is through the use of a set of gang hooks. What is a set of gang hooks? A set of gang hooks is simply a pair of small hooks tied in tandem that enable the angler to present a live worm in a completely natural manner. If night crawlers are being used, many times they are simply pinched in half and then added to the set of gang hooks. This also means that you effectively double the amount of bait that you have, which is a real money saver. The point is that a set of gang hooks gives the angler an extra hook so that not only can a live worm be presented outstretched the way God intended, but the extra hook its great for helping to hook those 'short striking' fish that try to steal your worms.
Gang hooks are very inexpensive and can be purchased (which is the easiest way to go) or they can be tied individually, the choice is yours. What's important is that you begin using gang hooks for all of your live worm fishing. The best way to attach gang hooks to your fishing line is through the use of small barrel swivels. This helps prevent line twist and makes gang hooks an amazingly helpful fish catching tool.
