Zimmy,
Lecounts is well on his way through "grad school" when it comes to how to fish a needlefish. I can tell by his words he has figured it out. Spending a week at Needlefish University this past November may have given him some new insights on the plug. When you cast them for many years, countless hours, into all conditions you begin to get "that feel." Kind of like Chevy Chase in Caddyshack telling the kid to "Be the Ball." "Be the Plug"!
