Thumbs up

The best retreive is like RiverRat says just walk the dog. ZIG-ZAG, ZiG-Zag. I found the prefect combo for them was an 8 foot medium action St. Croix Tidemaster conventional trigger stick and a Shimano GT-100 Conventional reel. I loaded the reel with Stealth 30 pound braid and using a ball bearing swivel with a 3 foot hunk of 40 lb. Fluorocarbon and a breakaway 50 pound clip. Don't listen to BASSMASTER! All he caught on them was bluefish and that is not a good test of what this plug can do. I have taken near a 100 bass this past two weeks on that plug and some of them were very large. ( Ask the guy who owns the Orvis Shop in Mashpee he was a witness) It has even outfished my beloved Beachmaster Dannys. My friend George, who fished with me this week, and is a vetran Elizabeth Islands fisherman, a doctor at Falmouth Hospital, and a surface plug nut, ordered 6 from Joe Lyons the day after our trip to the islands after seeing what that plug can do. I give it the Plug of the year award!

Why even try.........
