Long time ago my great uncle landed a 63 lber on a pencil in the canal. He was a friend of Stan Gibbs and I believe they were fishing together on that day, along with my father at a very young age. Big fish can be caught on plugs. Big fish can be caught on eels. I'm sure guys using bright yellow Benny's special rods have hooked into big fish. In my opinion it shouldn't matter whether you fish plugs or bait, going large is an accomplishment regardless. Although I do fish plugs, jigs, and plastics almost exclusively, I occasionally enjoy throwing an eel or live lining a bunker, and I've had decent success with both the artificials and the real things.
