Love this thread, I'll add my 2 cents...

I use the SS needles, 3 of them, the standard Super N fish, the 5.25", and the Wadd (Standard is Yellow/White, small is Black/Orange, Wadd is Block Island Green).

No matter what is running, as long as there is some sort of current and it isn't dead calm, I ALWAYS get fish whenever I twitch or give the needle a short burst in retrieval speed for about 1.5-2 cranks then stop a second. Straight retrieves only gave me skunks.

It must be the suspension of the plug in the water and it's sink rate because the twitches make this plug produce for me even though it is nothing more than a short burst forward and still is level which mimics the action of a baitfish without being stressed.

I can agree with the colors statements for sure.
