| Super Strike Bullet Heavy Stubby Needlefish- 2 1/2 oz. |
In the last two days, my son Jon and I have landed good numbers of decent fish. These have been mostly slots with even some over slots. We've been catching them on a Super Strike Bullet Heavy Stubby Needlefish. It has been the only plug in our bags that will punch out a long distance in these vicious northeast winds. It is that long cast that has gotten to where these fish have been feeding.
As the name suggests, this plug casts like a bullet. It is a compact length at 4 1/2 inches yet weighs 2 1/2 oz. We have been working this plug similar to a popper with short pulls of the rod tip with a slow to moderate retrieve, just keeping it at or just below the surface. We have been scoring with the yellow/white version.
Note that this plug is also made in a lighter version. I suggest the heavy model if you want to take on the stiff winds that we are experiencing right now along the oceanfront. The fish are there, but you have to reach them.
