Soft Plastic lures in the surf
Are there any soft plastic lures you prefer in the surf? I saw some gulp sand fleas but they are expensive. Anything else whiting or pompano might like.

Is that the strips, chunks, or worms that you are using?

If they still make them, Redfish magic 3X. Swim/paddle tail baits that are insanely durable. 3" "new penny" color. Really nice action, better than DOA soft plastics.

I have pretty good luck with the pink and orange fish bites. Will use Gulp shrimp for flounder though.
'Veteran' whether active duty, discharged, retired, or reserve is someone who, at one point in his/her life, wrote a blank check made payable to 'USA' for an amount of 'up to, and including his life.'
Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
