I thoroughly enjoy fishing plugs, especially topwater, and now my own creations. Not the same plugging from my boat as it is from the surf though.... That said, I have a boat, and with the plentiful availability of pogies now, and macks earlier in the season, I can't resist tossing them into some deeper holes to see how big I can catch. Yes, it is different. But the vicious hits and ensuing battles I have had the pleasure of experiencing lately are due to offerings of fresh cut pogies. They are actually outfishing live macks and live pogies. Also think the fish have been jazzed up due to the comms chunking thoughout their season. I got a few fish yesterday on plugs and rubber after running out of pogies, but all were substantially smaller.
It has been a strange season. The big fish are here. Could be gone in a flash, so will continue getting bait as my first option, at least from my boat. I do like catching as opposed to not catching.
