Thanks for the suggestions again.

lol I was using no scent. And, it's 2.75mi from the launch to the spot.

Zman is the only plastic I use, and I have 20-25 packages of them in one of those clear waterproof boxes from West Marine. Stashes easily under the seat of my PA. I figure if the worst should happen, it floats and I wont be losing sixty bucks in Zman's like you might in a binder.
When I get a new pattern, I take two out of the package and rig it up to a lead head, then put it back in. That way there is always a rigged one waiting to be tied on.
If you've ever used Zman's, you know how they can be a pain to rig since they are so tough. I'd rather do it in the comfort of my kitchen counter than on the water when I really need it...

I hear ya'. The damn plastic kept coming off the screw on my Gamakatsu EWG. Super durable stuff though. Over a dozen fish and the plastic is still good.

Would you happen to know the name of the plastic box from West Marine?

by flavor I was meaning the patterns. I look at all these different patterns and have no idea what I should be using. So far my best bait has been a white fluke. But I read one guy killing them on a watermelon, or a pumpkin spice or who knows what. If I was fly fishing I would try to match the hatch but I don't know what the fish are preying on in salt.

Just keep them in their plastic bags but put them in a dedicated dry bag with only the z mans in there and your jigheads.

Hey Harry,

I've had good luck with the Motor Oil and Suicidal Rooster colors. Saba was using the Suicidal Rooster, I think. They all seem to work well. The small slimswimz are killer on spotties too. They're small but big fish seem to like them too. Sports Chalet used to be my go to place for them since Turners doesn't carry them. Now I have to go to BPS or mail order them.
