okay the technique that i'm using is about a one and a half foot pull on the on on the strip
i'm placing the line under my finger and i'm giving a good jerk about a foot foot and a half
just like that and what it's doing is pulsating the fly pull stop pull stop pull stop and
this type of fly it actually when you do that it moves side to side so there's what you need
to do that's basically the technique i'm not i'm not moving the tip to try to do any extra with it
just that sudden pull like so under the fingers get it through and then pull pull pull
pull pull the muskie is a very effective predator living primarily on the flesh of other fish
but is not adverse to eating the occasional frog or small amphibian or even its own species

a water plant or alongside a submerged tree stump for a likely meal to stumble into the
area
