There is another company with a long standing reputation that has a "Bluefish Proof" version coming out. Have some ordered and waiting to test it.

Looks nice.
But the only reason I could think not to buy Sluggos is price$ Make a similar product for 1/2 and ill be all over it.
Until they're proven, everything else is fancy footwork, and right now you could spend hundreds trying out all the new plastic coming on market

Did you get the Red Fins yet?
I wonder if they are the same ones I ordered last year they have a jig head on them and some kind of strip in side to keep it together. I read something in The Fisherman and order them. I can't remember there name but I will go look Later |

That may have been the end of the bone Redfin for a little while. My order came in without any bones...  |

They're not tuffcore. The company making them is not a sponsor of this site so I don't want to post the name. If the SWE decides to carry them Pete will post the info.

He does indeed. I'm not sure why it surprises me, but the guy has ALOT of knowledge, he's pretty young too.
This is WAY off topic...
But some guys are just naturals, at alot of different things. Some guys are just naturals at fishing. Not only do they suck up information like a sponge, they can then apply it. Almost instinctively. I think Shadow is one of these guys. Also, he's a real nice guy, great to fish with. If he doesn't start nailing big fish consistantly a few years down the road I will be surprised. |

Tuffcore = good stuff!!!
I sent them an e-mail asking if they made bigger stuff for the canal and I have not received a response. I would like to slap on a big lead head on a 10'' lance or eel and bounce it on the bottom of the canal. |
