Diving plugs


FX

Recommended Posts

Wondering if any of you guys have had luck with running diving plugs off planer boards. I've never been very successful with them, but do ok with adding a weight before a 6' leader to floating plugs typically early in the season when the fish start moving a little deeper. Don't quite understand why - is it a different action with the nose of the bait pointed downward instead of being more horizontal??

Hot n'tots and reef runners work. Try throwing them down the chute ( off the back). I will often send these back on a light action spinning outfit with 8# test and set it in a rod holder on my hardtop. Will catch anything from cohos, and browns in the spring close to shore or even smallmouth and sheephead in the summer.
