    I agree completely!

    The very best fall, and with a wiggle, soft plastic is without a question the Senko!

    Just purchase a Senko, any size any color, and get a single edge razor blade and chop away! LOL When you get the little pieces you like, just put over a candle and it will melt into a smooth "head like" end. Keep turning until the plastic cools, and let cool overnight. I can usually get 16 wonderful soft plastic "fish catchin" baits from 1 Senko!

    I have this perfected now, and these will catch better than live bait!

    So sorry, lure makers! It's so much fun, I just had to post it! LOL

    They also make a 2" Senko which is deadly.

    Marabou and tube jigs have plenty of movement for tiny jigs. Having said that, I have more luck with solid beetle bodies.

    I should add that I was thinking Lindy Fuzz-e grub when I mentioned marabou. I realized that you were asking about plastic when I thought of the Fuzz-e grub, which has a plastic body in front of a marabou tail. Works great under a float sometimes, although generally better for crappie than bream in my experience.

    Sorry about the golf thing. I couldn't resist.

    Seriously, though, if you put almost any small bait near a bluegill, he's gonna take a whack at it. In your "Father's Day" thread, did you try trout magnets or sliders?

    Being strictly a jig and soft plastic user for the past 20 years or so, I have found that just about anything will work on any given day, however, there are a few that seem to produce regularly no matter what the weather or water conditions are. First off is that I use a very small jig, 1/64 ounce or smaller. Orange is my favorite jig color, but I do use purple, black, brown, and white from time to time as well. My favorite plastics are the Berkley Gulp minnow is Smelt or Emerald shiner, 1 inch size, the Berkley Power Wigglers, the Trigger X Spike Worm in Black, and the Berkley Gulp Angleworm in Natural color. Also, if bobber fishing, I only use clear bobbers.Name:  DSCN2239.jpg

    It is not about the equipment you have to use,
    It is about how you use the equipment you have. :D
