thems some sneaky little buggers for sure but they do love the bait.

I think I shoulda let em run with it but I really didn't want to gut hook em and kill fish I wasn't keeping. a went with one pack of 6" worms and they were gone in less then ten minutes so I didn't get much chance to learn and adjust.

I tried them at the wd40 rigs offshore and they never hit bottom but a got a few line strippers before they broke off. again that trip I got nothing in the box as a result but they definitely went after em like crazy and I did catch two small snapper I released

I been wanting to try learning to use them in a productive way but im so used to my normal baits I don't get around to it because im always waiting until I have my limit before I start "playing around" and by then its time to head in.

once I restock the freezer I can play around with it some more
