I realized that I almost never reach for my shad-body type soft plastics anymore, regardless of the bait that is present...

What i mean is, I will rig up and throw an eel-type soft plastic 99% of the time, even if a shad-body more closely resembles the bait that is present... (If mullet is in the water, and Im throwing soft plastic, its still an eel)

Wondering if I'm the only one doing this, and I'm missing out... What are your preferences when it comes to soft plastics, because My shad bodies have been getting no game-time for the last few years...
(I do go through phases though).

Anyone throwing shad bodies more ? I am talking SURF btw
Pete, I’m with you. It’s Snax XL about 70% of the time, plastic eel types 25% and occasionally a plug. I just feel so confident in them that I just concentrate on cast placement and retrieve speed. Don’t think I’ll improve my odds by changing lures.
