I use Sluggos like this a ton at the canal. I like the ones at Charlie's. Great price, selection and on my way. Plain, white and black in any weight you could need. Just make sure to clip off the little spike and super glue the Sluggo on. Haven't had a problem with durability.

Their only true enemies are shorts and blues.
Shorts because of lack of hookup, and blues because of the resulting lack of a lure when they chomp it off.
Amen to that. Nothing like rigging them up, waiting for the glue to dry and chomped off on the first cast.

Almost every time they're bit in half, it's when I'm reeling in fast to reset my drift.
