So after doing the live stream Tuesday I had to take my own advice. I got to thinking about plastic size and girth more than length when big vs small. It reminded of a day in Baffin and I caught three 25” trout in about 5 casts all over 5 lbs. We were grinding that day and the fish were sitting on bottom and we couldn’t get our corkies down to them. They weren’t hitting plastics at all though and I dug through the boat bag and tried to find something the shape of a Corky that would go down 4’. I came across these that my son had won in a grab bag and put them on a 1/8 oz jig head. I proceeded to put on a seminar the rest of the day with them. All of that said I went on a quest to find some more of them after our discussions on Tuesday. Big profile, thick body, slow descent. Sometimes I think profile matters more in the size discussion than length. You aren’t necessarily going bigger by just going longer. Now I need K Wigglers to make a 7” ball tail this thick!
