How much do you charge for lessons on wrangling asian tiger fish?

For you, my friend, the lessons are free. First, make certain you're using the proper baits. Though the tiger fish act uninterested in many of the baits we try, she will ferociously strike the right one once it's presented. Once you've actually hooked the fish, the trick to landing her is to not be aggressive or fight her. When you're reeling her in, do NOT pump the rod for she'll surely jump and throw the hook at the first hint of weakness. Likewise, when she decides to run, do not fight her but let her move while keeping the line tight enough so your hook remains firmly set. She will surely wear out after a hard run, and you can resume reeling her back in if you're skillful enough to keep her on the line while she attempts to gain her freedom. It may seem like you're taking 2 steps back for every 3 forward, but to taste the sweet meat of the rare asian tiger fish is certainly worth the effort, I'm sure.
