I do 99% of my fishing in the dark so I rarely get to see the fish hit. I would say my favorite type of fishing is with needles. Crawling a blurple Habs with a nice NE wind in your face, letting the plug roll around in the surf and then feeling that light pick up, almost like fishing eels. Or fishing a blorange afterhours needle on a fall night when the surf is basically flat but there is a strong current due to the moon. Fishing it a bit faster than the habs and adding a very light twitch and pause every once in awhile. Or fishing a big 3oz black and gold Mac Pikie. I tuned this plug to perfection and it swims PERFECT. Toss it around this one rock pile where fish consistently hold. The water moving around the rock from the incoming and outgoing waves cause the plug to swim with out any reeling. I hold it there and repeat. When the fish takes during this situation it is a lot different from fishing needles, at times it can be furocious(sp?). Is it May yet? I like this thread bigfish
