Maybe it's just me, but I really notice large differences in success from very small changes in retrieve w/ needlefish. Some nights I've noticed all my hits come on a short pause - same retrieve w/o the pause = no fish. It's as if the fish were just following all of the baits and just needed a little trigger.
One day in particular, they wanted a long pause at the beginning with a jerk. A guy 10' from me was fishing the same size/color and they wouldn't touch his.
All my needles have some kind of tail - I think it makes them look better when they swim - you get that jointed lure effect.
