When Blues are around I will throw grubs and shads on a jighead and really don't care if they get chopped in half if I'm catching fish.. 

when I’m throwing a plastic on a jighead and it gets chomped by blues I just keep throwing it without changing the plastic

 

last month I caugh like 28 blues on one albie snack. After each fish it got shorter and shorter until it was about a quarter of an inch of plastic left of the hook, and the blues kept hitting it

 

when they’re really feeding I’ve out fished my buddies by just throwing a chatter bait head with nothing on it verses them throwing plugs and metals

yup sometimes they just want to destroy rubbers . I buy them to catch fish and will blaze through packs of them no worries at all .. 10-20$ of fun well worth it in my book

The elastech baits last quite a bit longer. They are so stretchy that the blues have trouble cutting the bait fully in half. That’s of course only if the fish gets lip hooked and another blue doesn’t come and bite the line.

Color white or Arkansas shiner in a 6 inch sluggo :th:

My favorite 6” sluggos are pink or alewife….with white a very close third :) 

Show someone how to catch striped bass and they'll be ready to fish anywhere.

6" arkansas shiner all the way for most water including dark, stained, or clear water. 6-7.5" white for clear water. 9" black for at night. And that's it. That is all you need. The rest of what you buy for lures is all just to feed an addiction.  

Sorry, but the black/blood red was my favorite 9” for fishing at night :)

Imagine going through a dozen of these things in an hour? Yikes…I hope you’ve invested well :laugh: I’ve gone through bags of sluggos or finsfish in an hour…but they cost me about fifty cents each…not fifty dollars each :scared:

How about a $50 tog jig?
I’ll sell you one if you’re willing to pay for the greatest jig ever. Made with a special rare earth mineral called lead. If you aren’t an elite angler don’t even ask because I won’t sell to you.
