My apologies for resurrecting an old thread...

But I also will put in my 2 cents and tell you that you don't need to try and force it out there, if you hear your line making that noise in the wind you casted too hard and it won't go as far as you want it to because you tightened up all of your muscles. Keep loose! That's how a lot of fisherman blow their shoulders out.

Also, you don't need tape on your finger for protection, if you use braid, you should only hold the line with the pad of your index finger tip!

Though in my experience from boat and shore, I've always had fish nail the plug 5 feet from where I was. Maybe I have an uncanny ability for that, who knows..

You can literally flip a Bomber into the breakers and get hooked.

Cheers!
