ditto on the cloned stick shad... I like mine painted pearl white... I did well with one of my 20Z darters in lobsta paint

Didn't fish much this year but the sp minnow was productive and is really pushing bombers out of my bag.

My mainstay lures this year and most productive included:
*AH Slider Spook
*AH pencils - 3 oz and 2 oz
*StriperMaineiac needles
* BigFish Prey - saved the day for me a number of times
* Pt Jude tins also saved the day on numerous occasions as well

* plus a variety of jigs/bucktails

Surprisingly for me.....all my productive lures were BigFish Baits????:huh: Go figure???:rotf2:

But seriously though.....out of all my plugs I did the most damage with my "Doubleshot Pencil" in 2.25 weight, my 1 oz. pencil and my "Prey" swimmers. Did not throw the Danny much and my usual spring and fall go to the "Blitzseeker" barely got out of the bag??? Every season is different though?:uhuh:

Canal fish....

frozen herring chunks.

(not kidding either) :confused::devil2:

Frozen in Bunker Oil and infused with Eel piss, none-the-less.

I thought they caught all the illegal aliens already??

Savage 5oz or the 3 sandeel most fish on the retrieve and SP minnow and late the Mag darter . every one say loaded bone redfin have had one 2 years the thing catches nothing?

I haven't done well with fish of any size since i started fishing the loaded redfin a couple years ago. I seem to catch much better fish on the unweighted...

Use the unweighted Redfins in calm waters or shallow boulder fields, low current where you don't have to get the plug very far. Loaded ones are good for long casts, and work better in current.

Perhaps you heard this one before... 5oz. Savage eels & SP minnows. Hate to be a follower but if it works...I'm in.

Who makes the knock off and where can them be purchased ?
I take it they only come in one size ?

Err, I dunno if I'm violating rules here, (delete if applicable) but canal b&t has a bunch of different sized knockoffs; stick shads and magic swimmers... I assume you're not driving up here for that, or I think you can just order them off the internet too

M&D's / capecodtackle.com has some

You can probably find them on the Internet too if you are good at that sort of thing. I am pretty sure they have a couple sizes but I am talking about the largest size of the stick shad and the magic swimmer.

Canal's faux stick shad is just as good as the $40 version. I like the white/bone/ghost whatever they call it- works well.

These tube things I pull behind the boat seem to work pretty well too.

"Over loaded" bone redfin--this plug leaks, gains weight, and therefor holds in heavy current well.
