If you watch in the middle they start grouping 2 or 3 guys together on one jig.So when the 200lb fish hits you get 3 guys swinging it.A slob would take 1 guy down and sometimes rip the pole from there hands.These guys made all their own jigs and poles.They would use specially grown bamboo for their poles.Each guy tied his own feathers.It would be cool to swing the small fish but my back hurts when I see the 200lb fish hit!!!!
