Yeah---a few years ago, I came across some mullet off the beach here on LI, getting clobbered by bass. I figured it was now or never for that plug to catch. Threw it 3x beyond the school and swam it back---nada. Finally, the belly hook fouled on the leader, and it came back skating over the top. It got blasted--only fish I've ever caught on that plug

Back when the Hawg Man was alive, I grabbed some HD wire off him and re-rigged a couple of Yankee needlefish with better swivels. They attract fish but the stock barrel swivels blow
