The Slug-go is my "go to" lure. The key to more consistent action is in the retreive. If I'm fishing the canal, it's "low and Slow", but from a bridge, dock or pier it's quick with a twitch.
I rig them all on lead heads, trim off about 1/2 inch from the front and glue the shaft of the hook. One added plus with Slug-gos is that they can be repaired with a little glue or zap a gap. (Can you put an eel back together?) My typical surf plastics consist of Slug-gos (3,4,6,7.5 and 9 inch pre-rigged) and Storm swim shad (3,4,5 and 6 inch) with a few odds and ends like squid imitations, bass assasis and a castmaster or two. Just enough variety of colors, sizes and lure types to give me a fighting chance.
