Alternating reeling and release avoids snapping the line. Focus on why the action is allowed, not only its outcome. Consider the next action carefully.

Early hooks, missed bites and excessive tension lose a cast. A different version of the game may use a different rule. After a move, check what changed. Decide which rule explains the new state before acting again.
