| I didn't lose a single plug all of last year, which was remarkable since I fish plugs 95 % of the time.  My luck definitely didn't carry over to this year, though.  Last week I lost a blurple 2 oz. RM Smith swimmer on a bail flip over.  Worst part of it was that while I was re-tying, a fish came up and took the drifting plug which was moving pretty good in the current!  I'd never seen that happen before.  This past Saturday, I took a Hab's Jr. stubby out of the package and clipped it on.  First cast, I get a nice fish.  Second cast, my braid parted and so long plug.  At least the fishing was good. |
