Its not a pencil for the blitzes in the middle or anything but both the X and the XP are over an ounce with a small thin profile and cast well IMO. I was able to get out to fish most of the time. In the fall AM tides it was either one of those two plugs or one of Mikes pencils on my rod 50% of the time.

My regular rod 11' rated 3-8oz doesn't throw them too well. I will try my new backup rod (Tylers new rod) which is 9' rated 1-4 oz. I suppose thats why rods have ratings on them...he has my old penn 750 with 40# PP on it. Is it spring yet?
