Default Re: Bucktailing vs Dragging Bait
I fished yesterday in the bay with the bucktails caught a few on them. But yesterday all the keepers were caught on strip baits Sea Robbins. I quickly switched over to the bait & got a keeper. Some times you have to pay attention to what's working for the day. This is why most Fluke fisherman bring 2 rods. This year is a bit different with the bait vs bucktailing is 50/50. Also with the snappers looming that's my choice for those bigger fluke. I know quite a bit of big fish are caught that way every year.
