I've been trying to learn to use smartcast and on normal cast I would land an insane amount of hooks, But now that I tried smartcast I can barely land a few, any tips?

Turn on range indicators.

turn on range indicators it will make it to where the skill doesnt instantly activate until you let go of the q key

I hold Q and cancel by walking before throwing if need be.

Thresh's Q is one of the few ability's advised to not be on smartcast

Why would that be? I don't seem to have a problem with it. Is Blitz's hook on the list, too?

Blitz's is not on the list, the reason being Blitz's ability happens when you hit the key(or close enough to it that it doesn't matter) Thresh's hook has a delay by animation so your predictions is more important and harder because you have to gauge where they will be later then with a blitz hook or a leona blade.

i use Thresh's hook on smartcast. It just takes practice, man; keep playing games and you'll eventually get a handle on it.

Basically just practice. Thresh hooks are totally fine on smartcast. I've never used anything else, but if you're transitioning there's probably a learning curve.
