Great lure, I forgot about them as the sand eels have made a
comeback, and rarely see peanuts.

Yeah, yeah I know Clammer, you don't even need to take the time to post it.

dead sticking a red fin or large spook will draw a strike in that situation, excruciating fishing but rewarding when you pull it off and less excruciating that going fish-less in a sea of fish...cast....long pauses between occasional twitches...they will eventually get curious enough to draw a bump......had a buddy that was a master at this and he used to drive me crazy pulling nice fish because he had the patience to do this and i did not

that sounds great except that with strong running current it isn't feasible. I was tossing 3 & 4 inch storm shads and slug-gos and I had more fish run into my line than my lures.

I am a legend in my own mind!
