Magic Swimmer in the surf?
I know some people do well on the magic swimmer or knock offs in the surf, but I have a hard time keeping it down. I'm usually throwing it in moving water or where there is a hard sweep. I have no trouble keeping it down in the ditch even when the tide is ripping, but for some reason I can't make it dig anywhere else, even with similar conditions.
Anyone have any suggestions on how to fish it in the surf? I'm thinking a slower retrieve might be the ticket when there's some wave action. Thanks in advance. |
In the surf I use the fast sinking version.
Like you said they don't tend to stay down that well in the surf, especially if the surf is decent. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device |
Thanks, I'm glad someone else has had the same experiences as me. I have the knock offs and I would say they sink at a moderate rate. I might try to find some cheap Sebiles that have a fast sink rate as I know some people on here had pretty good success with them this year. Given all the big bait that's around, I have a hard time not throwing them...

I agree with above fast sink

Iv done great on the 4oz floating and the 3 Oz fast sinking the last few years I think it depends on the current more then anything bc iv done better with the 4oz slow sink in most places but if the current is cranking I go with the fast sink .carry both and fish both it will come together for you

Very it slow with an occasional rip does good ....burning it can draw a strike at times as well....but the slow retrieve works just fine.
