The plugs......
16449
Plug 1 - RM Smith Jointed Swimmer....The seductive motion of this jointed swimmer from RM Smith can be the key to getting early season sluggish bass to hit deep in the night......Early season the water is colder and the fishes' metabolism is slower. To get them to hit there are instances where you need to drag something right over their heads, something that is substantial enough to get them to act. RM's jointed swimmer can be the ticket if you can't get fish to hit another big wood plug.
16446
Plug 2 - Super Strike Rattlin Littleneck swimmer 2 1/4 oz - from the Canal to Cape May this plug slays its share of larger bass.
1. The rattles are deadly particularly in foul weather when bait is entering or gathered up in one area. I would rather fish this plug with the rattles VS almost anything else when the water is rough, and have had nights of 15-25 quality fish in the nastiest weather under the right conditions.
2. The color of this is secondary unless fishing an area of ambient light or a full moon.
3. The success, for me, of this plug is about when bait is gathered up in rough weather trying to hide, and predators are transitioning from the ocean looking for that bait.
4. If you can find a place where predators and prey are in the same tight area you can experience explosive action on this SS plug.
5. One of my all-time favorite plugs. :thumbsup: It's all about the action and the rattles.
16447
Plug 3 - Northbar bottle darter 2.5 oz...speaks for itself.....Cow tested with a 63lb Bass :bigeyes: caught by Surfcaster and Northbar company part-owner Rob Koch. These bottle darters are about as dialed in as you can be in terms of presentation and consistency in the way they swim.
1. The creation of the Northbar bottle darter by Inventor Larry Wellcome is IMO probably one of the most notable saltwater fishing innovations in the last decade.
2. This plug is a fantastic choice for the rough water of Montauk and the harsh conditions on Northeast beaches and boulder fields.
3. It is also a killer presentation in inlets, rips and deep water areas where the fish may not be in the top of the water column.
4. Additionally, great plug for trolling in a kayak or small boat at night. Finding stray fish when they are not concentrated.
5. The innovative design allows it to "dig in" when the water is rough or swift.
6. This extra depth and stability will put and keep this plug in the strike zone for longer than almost any other plug. In rough or swift water that is often the slight extra edge that is needed to get a vicious strike from a larger bass.
Here Northbar guy Rob Koch says a few words about how they knew they had something special with this plug.

16448
Plug 4 - Super Strike Littleneck Popper 1 1/2 oz...this simple but smaller design is often one of the only things that can get sluggish Early Season cold water Bass and bluefish to hit aggressively. :headbang:
If you are out there in the salt in late March or early April and the guy next to you is out-fishing you 3-1 in a daytime bite where no bunker are visible, chances are he's using the Superstrike Littleneck, and you aren't.....:(

Madcaster, you won the 2nd part of the contest, congrats!
Pick any of the 2 superstrike plugs...#2 or #4 above...
They are deadly for raising fish that you may not think are there.......and irrestible to bluefish when they are hitting top water plugs.....
Next winner will be picked June 30....
Will get whatever plug madcaster did not pick.....
Congrats to all.....:HappyWave:
Let's see some fish caught on those plugs....:fishing:
