What plugs would you carry to fish the end of next week on Cuttyhunk. Going for a few days with some of my brothers and while I will have to go drag tubes, (they are gonna make me) I will spend as much time as possible pluggin away.
My brother has fished there for years but trolls almost exclusively. He thinks that is the only way to catch decent fish. And there is no rivalry......... :love:

So far this is what I'm bringing:
Rigged eels, yes slugggos too, needles from 5" to a foot, Way too many other plugs, all my usual surf stuff plus my splash pants for the boat. I won't forget the teasers.
I have to pack when my wife ain't around cuz she'll pick on me like I pick on her when she packs for a wknd. But my stuff is all important.............

Danny plugs both medium and large. Pencil poppers in 2oz. Needles that float and an asst. of Spooks and Howdy types. Flaptails if you got any. Remember that there is a lot of structure just under the surface and lots of grass so 99% of what you throw there should be on or just below the surface.

Hab's Needle in yellow/red head, Hab's 2 ounce popper in same color and Mike Fixter's Pikie in yellow with a red head or similar offering -- next choice a big fat Danny. Certain water conditions might make Tattoo's 3 oz. Sea Pup in Poggie Pattern a killer offering as well.

Slugo's are just about all that a local sharpie fishes -- and his father made plugs on the island back just after WWII -- he use to fish just about everything wood and these days it's mostly soft plastic he's tossing.

I think I'll tie a slugo to one of my fins and see if I can draw a strike next week when I return to do a little filming. I'll give the forum the low down on the fish-eye view.

I'll be there Wed nite thru Sun. If you want I could cast a sluggo without a hook over you and see what the bass do.

throw in some bombers or windcheaters

Windcheaters run about 4-6 feet down. At least mine do.

Bring Redfins instead ;)

I use a Windcheater Olive back last fall at Cutty. Caught my personal best 44 1/4. I grind half of the lip down. This keeps it closer to the surface with a slooooow retrieve. I use this plug especially if it 's windy and/or if I want to start my presentation over the third wave swell. Billy D :ss:
