Anyone have their Cobb's hook the leader way too often. I use single strand steel leaders with solid rings, but it seems like the bait fouls on every cast. I've had some issues with other gliders, but it seems like I can't get 2 good casts out of a Cobb. There has to be a better way, anyone have suggestions?

Glide baits have a tendency of turning nose first in the air when casted. You can fix this by applying more thumb drag when casting. These baits are a weighted more in the nose area so as to sink evenly. As a maker of gliders I have had a few people contact me with the same problem. More thumb always solves the problem.
