A lot of time you'll have stacks of smaller lakers...maybe ten fish...maybe a hundred..all in the same spot. If you miss one, another will hit it..and then another, if you were to miss again. They can be pretty competitive. If you're getting bit like that, keep casting to the same spot.Thanks! I forgot to mention that there were several lakers that I missed on the first strike that came back and hit my lure for a second or even a third time in some cases and then I finally got em. So if you miss a hit, don't give up. There's always a chance theyll turn around for more
