Aint nothin like that THUMP THUMP THUMP an eel makes when a bass is sizing him up...
I do have alot of respect for sluggos tho, the past three seasons they have proved their worth to me over and over again, there will always be some sluggos in my skinz pouch.

Does anyone have a source for those wobblehead jigs for saltwater use?

Bill

Joe lyons at surfcasting RI has them. Hes a sponsor here.

Point Jude Tackle- sponsor here

or

Surfcasting-RhodeIsland.com- also a sponsor

Please tell me more about the rigging as it relates to the "weights" that need to inserted in theYamamto worm or the Yum worms.

I don't see them on Joe's site? I looked under Lures by Point Jude. Anyone?

Theyre on Joes site, you were almost there. On the bottom of the page for ptjude lures, there is a next button. Theyre on the second page, think it said they were $2.50.

You can see them on Pt Jude Joe's website: http://pointjudelures.com

(did I mention that I did that site :hihi: - we still have a ways to go with it - the next step is much better pictures of the lures, the last set was a little blurry)

Joe Lyons carries Pt Jude as does Salwtwater Edge, M&D's and I think that is all of our sponsors that do...

Would it be a true statement to say that the weight of the jighead or nail weights differ from when your on a boat or surf casting ?

You can practically have no weight from a boat because your ther on top of the fish, that is fine, but as a surfcaster I don't know were your coming from when you give your opinion on artificals whether its boat or surf/land.

My comments are about shore fishing with plastics , not boat fishing.

Gotta love it when everyone assumes that because your fishing from a boat, all you need to do is drop a line over the side and your onto fish.

You still may need weight from a boat depending on different situations. Jigheads, bullet head, and I quite often use Bob S(Got Stripers) recommended method of solder wrap on the offset hooks (works very well).

Weighting Sluggos
 

Years ago I purchased some "insiders" which are small flat lead weights with a small hole drilled through the top that are used inside tube baits. They can also be used to weight a texposed sluggo. Slide the hook through the nose of the sluggo, slip one or a few weights on through the hole so they dangle down from the hook and insert the hook back in the sluggo to finish the texposing. They even rattle abit when they bang each other.. Never had a issue with them coming off or affecting the hook set and its easy to adjust weight by slipping the hook out..adding or subtracting a weight
