They do work well.

The only bad thing I can say about them (other than they get chopped) is that the little guys seem to inhale them.

My goal in life is to be the kind of man my dog thinks I am.

I picked up the 9 inch storms at Decathalon Sports for about $5.00 each.

These storms work all year for striped bass? I normally use them in the spring only.

I guess bluefish kill them

When the bluefish come in you can just tos a hook out there. You don't need storms or bait.

Take a look at the Tsunami product as well, at least as durable and it might fish better. Cheaper in some cases too.

I'm so hooked! I don't have to chunk anymore! It seems that they work for me on spots that have structures, pilings, or abundents. Now, I need the pink color.

When using storms I cast them way out, and just retrieve slow. Does anyone else use the storms and retrieve in a pause/reel/pause method? or a different method?
