Hey, more than once as the plug hit the water, head first, the tail hook impailed itself in the snout of an unsuspecting bass. Reel that one in from 400' to 500' out when your warmed up.

Like everybody else say though distance casting and the canal are not necessary to going large. Most of the biggest fish are hooked up 30" to 40" from the rocks.
