Nice one Andy. George was kind enough to give me one of those a few years ago. Admittedly, I still have no clue as to how a darter is fished and have never caught a fish on one. Just for reference, how is it rigged with regard to hook size and placement? Seeing I'm off the eel kick there's never been a better time than now to learn something new.

Got this hefty mid 20# class fish this morning on one of my skinny brown pencils. Action was real slow where I was but this fish chased it quite a long distance and finally took the plug down after about 10 attempts...surprised she kept with it as long as she did.

tysdad115 06-07-2013 11:26 AM

It's rigged with two cut 3/0 and a 5/0 dressed swash on tail. I love fishing darters. That fish was 42", 26# . Nothing great, but it couldn't resist the plug.

I love these posts every year, so good after a long winter and plug building to see the pictures of fish on new wood. I got this one about a month ago. Friend and i were fishing in a bay which seemed like the dead sea. Tide was absolutely not moving, water dead flat, no birds, lots of fishing boats not doing anything. After several hours we were makeing our way back to the launch when my friend said, that bird has been diving down in that spot for a while, there must be bait so let's troll by it. Bam, fish on... nice wake up call on this 36"er. The cool part is I had been playing around with this small swimmer at around 4.875" that you can see hanging in the back of the kayak next to the wheel.

Good luck everyone, tight lines.

Ok, this is getting old...one hit all morning today, low 20# fish on brown pencil. Kind of a repeat of my entire season so far. Nice hit and fight though:

that plug has been a winner for you.

Brief trip this am. Got this youngster to eat Lou's (SgtStriper) Nike.
Cool plug, has an action much like a predator.

Nightfighter surf howdy first cast tonight this schoolie blasted it.
Then the cops told me I was too close to the airport. Apparently The blitzing fish didn't impress them much.

Another great fish on a Numby 2 oz darter at Cutty on Sat night at high tide. No picture but this was the fattest 38" fish I have ever seen... football shaped and a massive tail... Mark (Just fishin) and I got a private lap dance before I set her free... very powerful fish... gave my ZB27 a nice workout

I dont have the pic but a friend of mine caught a 44 #er on one of my new pencils the other morning. He then released after boga weighing the fish. Another friend took pics of the fish prior to releasing.

Here's the pic Frank. Soups with a 44# fish caught on a Yellow pencil Frank gave him not 5 minutes before this fish hit it.. a great fish. Released to fight again as always. And by the look of the hook she was landed at just the right time.
