I've free spooled a similar lure out of the Charlestown Breechway and worked it in the current way out. Bumping the bottom is a good thing as long as you not getting hung up. If you fish the mouth of the Merrimack, cast it out in an out going current and leave the bail open til the lure gets out 30-40 yards then flip the bail and hold it in the current(don't reel). This lure will stay in the current right on the bottom, right where you want to be. This is the only application I can think of for this plug off land. Give it a try Plum! I say "good lure".
