Needle I have done best with- Salty's 2.5oz. in everybody's favorite color- Blurple (with glow in the dark eyes).

thanks woody. I mean I will get to a spot, conditions look good for a needle. Ill toss one out sllloooowwwllly reeeling it in, couple twitches here and there. 6 casts later, im switching to a plug I have more confidence in. Its just a mental thing I guess.
