Thought some of ya's might like to have a discussion about using bigger rubber for bigger bass.
(I'm specifically talking about 9' shads here and the newest addition to the lineup, the 9" "Wave Worm" profiles that resemble the lizard fish), but feel free to talk about any bigger rubber you've used to score, and what conditions you felt were best for that offering.....
For me, this only makes sense when the forage match that profile you're throwing (IE bigger bunker).
You will get less action, and at times it may not seem worth it...you may have to throw that big slab of rubber for an hour or so to get the bigger fish you're looking for. Most guys give up way before this.
The rewards are there, if you are willing to work for them. The best way to present a bigger rubber profile, IMO, is with a conventional, so it requires you be proficient at casting them. repeatedly..this is where many guys in the NJ area lose interest as well...for our surfcasting brothers to the N and S of us, it's no big deal to cast a conventonal all night...it just seems a little less popular for folks here in NJ...
I thought if any of ya's had any experience or good stories about casting larger rubber, and what works and what doesn't, ya's might want to weigh in here....
I'll weigh back in when I get a chance...thanks..
