These Topwater Canal Strikes Are Insane! BFS Style!

This session was all about topwater fishing! My first topwater session of the year. The aim was to hopefully catch a canal chub or two and obviously expecting some pike action too! I was using small frogs in the chub swims and larger frogs with wire leader in the more pike dominated areas. It started off tricky, I couldn't seem to nail the hookset with the light bfs setup at first. After thinking about how to change my approach I decided to just reel into the fish as they took the bait and not strike at all! It ended up being the turning point in the session and took my hook-up rate from 0 to 100%. Hope you enjoy!
