if you don't go with the eels, you can rig a surf hog on a point jude wobble head...deadly

or you can trade what we discussed and I'll really tell you what I do

jim,

i won't ask for the whole jim sylvester method but do you ever find that you get hits while you're retrieving the plug vs. letting it strum in the current. also do you typically give the plug a good drift or vary your drift to cover more water?

letting it "strum" in the water usually produces larger fish for me anyways, espexcially with darters

great question on the length of the drift

vary until you find where the fish are, they are usually holding somewhere specific in the drift

Piemma would probably know this as i read in an old timers log book once......drifting the river on a 14 count, 16 count, 20 count, finally starting picking up the fish on 36 count, and there was fish every drift for the next 2 hours on the 36 count

Jim,
That's awsome info and I appreciate that you're willing to share it. I thought that would be the case but it's nice to have the reinforcement.

Did you see the BM dannies on the other site. I know you want them bad....but that bad??? Might be your last shot at that the 3 oz. size.

You have to watch "The Wire" to get it. That guy's a dope fiend.

Maybe it's time for a new avatar.

When Beachmaster finally makes the Dannies I'm going to buy plugs like I never have before...

Knowing the normal timetable, I'm guessing sometime around next fall we might see actually see some...
