Dahlberg and Sebile

Dont know if anyone caught The Hunt for Big Fish on tv. I was always wondering if Larry ever caught stripers before. He was off the Cape with P Sabile, throwing topwater.

making s-b.com a kinder, gentler place for all

Its nice to see Patrick ditching the tail hook on the magic swimmer. Dahlberg should have done it on the stick shad as well.

Why no tail hook on the stick shad?

With the pressure they put on those fish, no chance they're using stock hardware. Didn't RoyL mention that the Sebiles are freshwater plugs?

The reason i dont use a tail hook is that 3 of the first 5 fish i got on them went back with only one eye. The hooks are perfectly spaced to get one in the mouth and one in the eye of 20-24 pound fish. After taking the rear hook off i didn't notice any real difference in hook up success. I also ditched the hook on the magic swimmer because it fouled frequently.
