    If your changing them to doubles you would be better off running a swiveled single hook
    http://www.ringedhooks.com/ Go here look through the brand you want Then click the side for size The swiveled hooks are usually at the bottom of the window much better option than the doubles I have found that the doubles collect more weeds and less fish To give you an idea where I fish I was the smallest CC out there when you went on Nov 2nd winds out of the NW changed to NE at about 20knts around 8am

    LOL, there were a couple of boats out there that I said "Those guys have a brass set on them to be out here today"

    Have you found that the stickbaits run well with singles? I tried them a while back and couldn't get them to swim right.

    Alex- tried calling you earlier today and it went straight to VM- you back on the rig?

    Shoe: the double is the way to go we use them on most of our smaller trailer lures. Trick **** If you are attaching them to a swivel, invest in some shrink wrap tubing ( size that will fit over the eye of the hook and to the barrel of the swivel aproximately 1 1/2 long and shrink it up . It prevents the barrel loop under pressure from sliding down the hook and potentially losing the fish.

    would this spring get together entail playing with only the finest of ballyhoo's available in all of new england?

    or is this the seaker 'wagon adventure round two? i think shoe missed out on round one, and i know for a fact if shoe were there with his fruity booties, you could have gotten better money for him!

    in all seriousness though. this spring, when the first wad of fish show up, im there. hopefully shoe lets me torture one or two of his fancy bluefish poppers.

    Dude....I can't wait for this summer and the new chariot.....I know you haven't pulled the trigger yet, but let's be honest....it's just a matter of time I'll bring my fancy bluefish poppers and we can put them to the test

    Vin- do you have a kidney belt I can borrow? When Alex gets his ride.....things are going to get nasty
