I wonder if you would do just as well with a bucktail teaser ? They're alot cheaper if you tie em yourself and its not hard to do.

I tied up a bunch to take on a week long trip, some were just white with silver flash on the top, others were dark on top & white on the bottom. I fished them for the whole week, and I caught as many fish on the teasers as on the plugs.

I also had nights where only the teaser caught...

I do think that they do have a down side. If you get into a school of mixed size fish and you are fishing a teaser, it seems that you will consistantly get the smaller fish. I'm not sure why that is (I do have my theories) but that was my experience...
