DJ Muller had a great article in the sept issue of OTW about peanut bunker strategies, one of them was using a snag hook to snag one to live line! Is DJ a member here? he does some great articles.

I had almost the same thing happen to me last Friday night. Bass swirling all around me feeding on 3" peanuts. I couldn't get a hit at first for about a half hour. I tried sluggos, 4" storm shad, small danny, small yellow needle, large black needle, nothing worked. Finally I found the magic lure, a chicken scratch 7" Redfin. After I put that on, I caught a fish almost every cast for the next hour and a half, including a few high teen keepers.

I like the yellow (chicken scratch) for matching up with the bunkers.

I don't have a picture to show you but you can look up redfins at cottoncordelllures.com . Chicken scratch color is white on bottom, pale yellow top with splotchy black lateral lines on the side with red accents around the head. It's a popular bomber lure color.
