Wollaston Beach Tease

[Stroth]

I had a great a.m. with a mega bait jig yesterday. Only problem with this jig is that the finish wears off rather quickly. I even coated it with epoxy beforehand. Anyone have any other ideas?

MikeT:

Here's what I'd have in the bag:

small poppers white with bucktail hook
yozuri swimmers
kastmaster/crippled herring/mega bait tins (i'd fish the kastmaster with a bucktail, the others plain)
plastics (smallest storms/sluggos)

One trick is to cast away from the breaking school. In other words if there is a massive boil in front of you aim for the edges, not the middle.

Vary your lure and retrieve. Sometimes we get so fired up we don't realize we're doing the same thing cast after cast. I'd take one cast and rip the tin through, then take another and let the tin flutter almost to the bottom.

I'll bet you 2:1 that you'll get hits as that tin sinks.

I'm no pro, but hopefully this will help some.

Tightlines,

Stroth
