I'm sure many are sitting home on lockdown like me and dreaming of days in the suds fishing for our beloved striped bass.

As such, i thought I'd try to drum up some plug talk.

This past year I had some success with a powder blue high hook needle (dinner catcher) and in years past i've had success with the Habs 2oz needle in his metallic blue.

I know Iron Mike supposedly liked the baby blue habs as well.

I bring this up because I never really fish blue darters or other plugs really. I guess you could count eelskins as blue, but i don't think its the color that matters on an eelskin. Anyway, I like blue needles.

Anyone else like blue needles? Or blue plugs?

Hope you're all safe and healthy.
