are they out there and i haven't seen them? if they are could i please see one? if not, why aren't they? seems like it would work. i'm a newbie to this whole plug thing so please be gentle. thanks.
I've seen a few customs, but no production ones.. IMO there arent any being made because a needlefish has no built in action, so there is no need for a joint. Also, a jointed needlefish would cast like a overcooked noodle.
If you need one, make one or 10..... this is why we all build plugs.
i just saw slipknots thread on needlefish and some of those suckers were bent in half like a u that's what made me think if it. it's good to see not everyone goes to bed early! i really should get a job though. been laid off long enough.
Me and bassmaster made a few, jointed plugs do not cast well.
The way the real needlefish swim is why I use a single hook on the rear with tied bucktail.
Needles also imitate sandeels, sometimes on the smaller needles I make I put a blade on the rear on a ball bearing swivel.It helps with some resistence since the plug is so small and you retrieve it so slow. Looks like their little tail.
