Thanks and yes, they are 'purty'!

I was just reeling it back just fast enough to make the tail 'do-it's-thing'--not too fast, not too slow and of course, that will depend on the amount of line retrieval whatever reel you are using has.

I can't remember the size(I'm at work now) but it's the biggest size this hook comes in:

I went with the weedless treble due to the snags found in most of the ponds I fish in here in the deep South. She had the trebel and the stock, dorsal hook stuck in her as she inhaled "the whole thang".
