[Mr. Krinkle]

Thanks for the compliments everybody. Hopefully they will attract some fish for me pretty soon.

Nice plugs. You don't have to worry about a skin needle working.....ever.

[Mr. Krinkle]

So i've heard from a lot of people who used to and still do use them. By the way, that fish looks pretty big! Nice!

[numbskull]

Big fish are what you get on them. Smaller fish hit but usually don't get hooked because of its length and the single forward treble. Big fish often inhale the thing, probably tail first. They are often hooked in the isthmus with the entire plug in their throat. The other advantage to these plugs is that you can fish them with some success in weedy conditions (at least a little better than standard needles) if you let them sink and work them deeper.

Thanks for the advice. Now I just need to get out and fish. I've been fluke fishing since early July. Is that a beachmaster eel skin needle copy? I spun up a couple of those too.
