Not as much as I could babble on about but short n sweet.
When I say "patience" I'm saying slooooow. Put it this way, I use 1/3 the fuel that I did pre-wackyin'. As, in I can kill a cigar-on-a-single-retrieve slow. (whew)
Does it always work? Naw, but I'm a lot more relaxed while always in anticipation of that 'hit'.
Maybe it's the strike that you're waiting for... a strike for me is a minor twitch on the water surface off the line. Setting the hook is more a pop than a tooth-jerker. (shrug)
JackJ:
This was the first year that I tried it. The first couple trips I did so, I caught fish on the wacky when they wouldn't bite anything else.
Then all the sudden on the next few trips I couldn't buy a bite on one. So I fell away from it. Going to try it a lot more this year though.
Jig Man:
I didn't use it this year either even though we had high water. I had been using the Ned rig before the water came up and it was really producing so I stayed with it. I didn't even consider wacky.

Absolutely. You just said a mouthful right there. Need to dedicate some time to catching those first few fish with this method so I can gain that confidence (yes)
