A lot of good replies here. I would change hooks first. My preferance are Owners. Next if you feel the bump and no take let the bait free fall for a second then then if nothing uses a few short quick jerks, and when you feel that tug don't use a straight up and down hook set just sweep to the side, and keep downward or side pressure on the fish until he is boatside. Good Luck, and some days we just miss more fish for no known reason.
