The wind blows the bobber thus shaking the Smelt and when a Pike hits it you see your bobber start to slowly head down to the hole. No extra cash outlay for this set up.

Sounds like a great idea, but (and maybe I am reading this wrong) if you loosen your drag all the way, when u catch a fish wont you want your drag set?
