    I don't go any where without my hopkins and kastmasters w/an assortment of different color tail hooks that I can swap out when I want to change colors.I also like to carry gold colored tins sometimes it makes the difference between hooking up and not I picked up on this tip watching some sharpie diamond jiggers in Montauk it made a difference w/them picking bass amonst all the blues.

    I had a pic that I took of a box of old tins I got at a flea market, but I can't find it today. Will try to post when I do find it.
    In the meantime, now is the time to fish tins and small profile metals. The bait in the surf is still very small in most cases, so a tin with a teaser is the premier presentation. They will become more deadly as the surf stacks up with sand eels. That hasn't happened yet, but I expect that to change within the next 30 days.

    Feel free to show any of the stuff you're using.

    And remember, the old-style tins will sometimes out-fish an Ava 3 to 1 or better.

    Would you recommend using the old style tins for blues too?
