Not to hijack, but CJB do you really fish that many crankbaits from the shore or at all for that matter?
I know the tour guys fish crankbaits all the time, but this is when they have miles of water to cover.
Are you covering that much water out East or am I missing the boat on the hard bodies and they are more productive then I realize?
I figure that I can catch almost any species of fish at any time of the year with some sort of finesse plastic. I guess that's what keeps me coming back to them time and time again.
Although recently I have been taking the lures I wouldn't normally touch and take them to very productive waters (Meaning I know they are there and where they're going to be). This is where I really learn how to use them and sometimes I end up liking them, but other wise I just move them out of the trunk bag and buy more plastics.
