Need to land my first one

[LittleLuey]

I have been fishing for bass for the last couple of months but the progress has been slow, having little time to get out there and practice is hard. I need to start catching bass to keep my entusiasm going, I had a few bites on different lures but the bass end up trowing the hook out of it's mouth. I sometimes forget to set the hook or do a little wimpy hook set and I believe that is were I am loosing them. I know I am still a newbee but I need to see some progress.
The only bass I have cought has been with live bait.
