Great video clip. It is interesting and I have seen it often myself where fish would strike within a few seconds after you start your retrieve. I have observed Mullet dashing away from a splash and then rush back to see what caused the commotion.
With the queenfish last year I have seen that they love big splash of a lure landing.
Its almost like a trigger reaction.
Still waiting for them to come in this year to test it.
Cuta again hit either on the lure dropping or the retrieve...
