Losing too many kokes this year!

[trueblue2]

I agree that setting the drag correctly is very important so as to not put too much pressure on the hook set. Also, we learned that not reeling constantly when the fish is fighting is very important. Not sure about leader length. The Zippp Squids vibrate a lot more than a close coupled squid to a dodger so I set them back about 30”. The kokes really seemed to like the more aggressive action of the Zippp Squids. I think we were just too anxious to get the kokes to the net and needed to let them play out more. One the other hand the longer you let them out there the more they get free!!
