Clams work pretty good on them too as do the small sluggos/redgills.

Dennis I found that about 7-8 years ago in the book "How to fish for striped bass" by Jerry Sylvester.

I do quite a few of those every year and they've caught fish all over the world. Simple and economical. I'm amazed at every show how many people have never heard of it. Once you tell them and they try it they come back for more.
the book was called "salt water fishing is easy" by Jerry Sylvester

He called his eggs 'sylvester wood' and supposedly, he invented this technique for working the whitewater off the end of the cobble bars in matunuck RI. A place where he eventually had a heart attack and died while fishing- Someone stole his wallet on the beach after he died.. supposedly.

Sometimes you want a casting egg but sometimes you need a casting bubble. Know why and what the difference is?

Bubble is water filled

I also read about 'em in an article by Dave Pickering. Swears by them for certain conditions. I ordered 2 from Salty, haven't had a chance to use them yet. The fact that the old RI surfcasters, like Jerry Sylvester, used 'em is good enough for me. Another tool for the arsenal and a link to the past of our sport. And besides, if I get tired of carrying them around, they will look great on my christmas tree!
