A woodchuck would chuck all the wood he could if a woodchuck could chuck wood.

A wood chuck would chuck wood! ( except I nailed him at 150 yards with my AR10) Tastes like Trumpeter Swan!

Here's a toughy for ya Leb.

When using a custom made jointed, metal lips swimmer during an outgoing rip-tide, should I keep tension on the line while I allow the tide to take the plug out beyond where I can reach by casting or should I just feed it all the line it wants to decrease drag and go for more distance out away from shore?


Don't worry, I've got plenty of time.... :evil:

I will throw my opinion in based on river mouth fishing on the Great Lakes.
If fish are holding close to shore, keep light tension on as the rip tide pulls it out to entice a strike. If they are holding furthur out, let the line have a little slack as the lure pulls out until it's outward movement slows, then retrieve into the current to get maximum lure action.

Leb's from OKLAHOMA Sisco. GOSH, I don't get the chance to stump ANYONE on here... :laugh:


Also, FYI, saltwater jointed swimmers can be as long as 14 and 16 inches sometimes so allowing ANY slack would usually just end you up with a fouled plug when it turns and catches your line. Always keep at LEAST enough tension so you can feel the plug giving tension so you know it is facing the right direction and not all tangled with your line...

Jointed plugs always take a bit more time and finesse because they are SO darn easy to mess up with... :)

And I would have gotten away with it too if it hadn't been for those meddling kids and that dog... :evil:

When I float them out, I use an unjointed plug, just because of the snarl issue. Good way to catch late spring lakers in Superior.

Here it's all Striped Bass and Bluefish. Bluefish make a SERIOUS mess of a good plug though. Buggers got teeth that'll rip your fingers off and I've had MANY a $30 plug ruined by em.

Stripers just wrench and twist em all to hell but they're usually fixable after that...

I have heard Bluefish are nasty customers. My Big Lake fish are pretty benign.
