Thanks Habs

I decided to find out what all the hype was with needles and bought a couple. I bought a Habs needle at Saltwater's Edge in Newport, and finally got a chance to cast it over the weekend. The fish hated it, and I was getting bumped every other cast. An hour in, I got into a small keeper at 32". The needle had a dark greyish finish with a light purple belly and 5 or 6 inches long. This needle cast forever, and doesn't get caught up in the wind like the longer versions. Unfortunately, I nested and cast it off the next day. You can be sure that I'll pick up a couple of more, next time I make it to Newport or Burgess in Norton. Thanks again Habs.
