 Yes, it is. You want to keep a constant pressure on the fish to keep that hook set in and keep the fish coming up in a timely manner, but basically keep the hook set into the hook set. Now, we're fishing with some Penn Levelcast reels here, and, you know, we've got standard hooks, too, and I was missing some hookups until you told me to do a certain thing, and that has to do with just literally putting your thumb on the spool and not letting that line out when you set the hook.
