I am planning to attend (and take notes!)
This will be my first MSBA meeting. My work/home schedule will not permit me to regularly attend monthly meetings but I will join to show my support.

Flap,
I don't know if you should. This traditional "tuna" lure is so simple in design and fuction it's difficult for hard core striped bass fishermen to take it serously.
While trolling with this lure I've caught bass, blues, and cod (yes, cod). I know that this lure will fool very large bass. To prove it I have a straightened 7/0 hook attached to one of these lures that caught the attention of a 40 (?) pound bass in Cape Cod Bay near Plymouth last year. I usually hold my rod while trolling and the strike nearly ripped my shoulder off. When the lure went in the water it had a "gloss black" paint job but after a 10 second battle with this monster the lure's surface was reduced to a "matte" finish. I retired this feathered lure after that episode and converted all my lures to 4X hooks and even tuna/shark hooks.
This type of lure works anywhere you have an unobstructed sandy bottom and reasonably deep water. It's not a good choice when fishing boulder fields or areas with a kelp seabed such as Rhode Island's Matunuck Deep Hole, Narragansett, or the fire beach at Weekapaug because it will hang up on the bottom.
On the outer Cape, however, .....
Good luck tonight.
Bill

Just getting back into town after being away for a couple days, much as I'd like to, I don't have the energy.
