The hooks that come with the sluggo suck, they will open right up on a decent fish. Of all the products listed, I would chose the Yamamoto worms for ther fish catching ability. I guess the softness of the lure is what makes the action so great so, I will trade one fish for one bait. I rig them exactly like the sluggo and once torn apart I keep the hooks and reuse them. Yum worms are another bait that is rigged the same as the sluggo and has the same results.We were using berkley 10 inch power worms a good 10 years ago with great results on a leadhead with a fast retrieve to keep them off the bottom, fish hit these hard!

There are many good soft baits try them all. I will be at the boat show from tommorow on so, if anyone wants to learn how to rig a sluggo..etc.. stop by Jim Whites booth I am going to bring a bunch to rig up......

One more thing! I dont care what anyone uses, the live eel will never be beat by a soft plastic no way no how But looks like we may all be carrying plastic instead of eels one of these years so, better learn to use them!

Keep those rigged eels frozen! and save as many eel skins as you can! A skin plug is just about imposible to beat..........And one of the best lures you can use........

Aint nothin like that THUMP THUMP THUMP an eel makes when a bass is sizing him up...
I do have alot of respect for sluggos tho, the past three seasons they have proved their worth to me over and over again, there will always be some sluggos in my skinz pouch.

Theyre on Joes site, you were almost there. On the bottom of the page for ptjude lures, there is a next button. Theyre on the second page, think it said they were $2.50.

You can see them on Pt Jude Joe's website: http://pointjudelures.com

(did I mention that I did that site - we still have a ways to go with it - the next step is much better pictures of the lures, the last set was a little blurry)

Joe Lyons carries Pt Jude as does Salwtwater Edge, M&D's and I think that is all of our sponsors that do...

Would it be a true statement to say that the weight of the jighead or nail weights differ from when your on a boat or surf casting ?

You can practically have no weight from a boat because your ther on top of the fish, that is fine, but as a surfcaster I don't know were your coming from when you give your opinion on artificals whether its boat or surf/land.
