    The best colors have been pink and chrome and blue and chrome...I went bigger yesterday so I could stay further away from the schools and not push them down..The one last night was 3.5 in ches long and maybe 2oz...They carry a huge selection down at Dana Landing Market in MB..Or at Performance Tackle in OC...

    Last night I was throwing 15lb Pline but you can definately throw heavier on em..I will be putting a new top shot on that set up I use (Calcutta 400TE (Japanese version) and Graftech 8' 15-25 pound test)..

    To me the key is to be able to get a bait/jig to these fish with out being right on top of them..

    Sorry but forgot to mention that you need to swap out the factory hooks on these jigs and replace with high end trables or similar...

    Perfect! Thanks Jim, looks like I'm going to go shopping today.

    Perhaps my 30lb non-flouro line on a Trinidad 30TN and the bigger sized sardine colored megabait was too much for them on Tuesday -- who knows. I appreciate the quick response.

    See you out there - Mike

    Ahhh, now I know the jig you were talking about! Heard you on the radio last night being selective on the "info release". I was wondering, "do I have that mystery jig in my arsenal???..."
    Nice job on the fish. The last few days have been what we've been waiting for.
