When the bite is on, so we start cutting our worms in half, and they keep biting, so cut the worms into quarters, and then this thing gets ahold of that little #1 octopus hook with hardly 1/2”” inch of worm for bait, set the hook, oh yeah thats heavyyyy, when it realizes its hooked and leaps for the sky, cannot be beat!
