Hi Wes,
Here is a bass article on setting the hook. It is more for gear fishers,

We do quite a bit of bass fishing here in Indiana. Sometimes giving the
bass a 1-2 count before setting the hook helps.
Hi VFB,
We are starting our fishing season here in Central Oregon. Yay!
A couple of friends went after largemouth bass at our local bass fishery,
Davis Lake. They reported seven hits on poppers, but only one fish hooked
and boated.
Since we are not in bass land, but rather trout and steelhead
