Fish rod tip high or low, it's easy to walk this dog. Scumdog is designed to make walking the dog so easy that it becomes second nature and will allow you to spend your time and thoughts finding and catching fish rather than concentrating on the rhythm of your lure. You are able to walk fast or slow, pause, walk once or twice, or in a continuous motion. Hold the rod tip down the standard way, about 5 o'clock, or if you are in a small boat or on the bank, 2 o'clock will work just as well. Twitch it gently with your wrist, then release tension immediately. Keep some slack in your line and move the rod tip up and down, making line jump up.
