Your Favorite Plug?

Which plug do you like to fish the most? I want to know the one that you absolutely crush fish on and enjoy fishing it! Color, weight, the whole 9 yards!

I must admit to loving topwater for all the obvious reasons.....seeing the fish slap at it numerous times then explode on it! I must say a pencil would be number 1 with a surface swimmer/danny a close second.......Afterhours Jr. Spook is a fish slayer when the pencil ain't bringing them up!

Yellow/white belly or copper over pearl white 1.5 ounces.

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I really enjoy fishing spooks. I love them all: Surf Asylum Sleepwalker, Tattoo Pup, AH Junior Spook and last but not least the Yozuri Hydro Pencil(AKA striper crack). Bass/Blues commit suicide on the Hydro pencil and it cast like a missile.

Night time I have the most confidence in an A-Salt Bombers, LI Fish VT Needles, and Hab's needles. I enyoy getting the fish on needles the most.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

caught my last 30+ stripers on one of my 2 oz. pencils in white, so for now it's my favorite.

Too many

but if I had to take only one to a mostly sandy environment beach it would be a Rapala / Bomber type swimmer at night.

Daytime....a smallish pencil in flo pearl white with strong rose/ light green hues imbedded...say 2 oz.


Rocky area.... Blue over pearl white sinking pencil / needle type

Good health and family

2.5oz pencil, yellow/red head for calmer water.

If the water is rough, i like a little neck in the same color about 3oz. to swim the waves.
