This is very true. A larger Swimmer(6"danny is what I experienced it with) in a school of Peanuts is a Target just looking to get smacked. I Had bass on every single cast a # of times under same conditions at Montauk.In fact it was my best fishing last year. Not sure if the plugs were viewed as competition or just easier to pick out, but the bass were zeroing in on the larger plug immediately. The rubber storm shads that tried to match the peanuts were NOT scoring as well . I later compared notes with some guys who were throwing even LARGER plugs and did very well also.
BTW, Nice plugs Ryan ! |

Last Nov, I was catching 25 to 30# bass in the back of a SoCo breachway that was filled with peanut bunker. I was using one of my 9" dannys that weigh 3.5 oz. Sometimes you don't want to "match the hatch".

What color was your large Danny swimmer, and did you switch to the same swimmer in another color once the sun went down?
thanks |

It's a Pogey color. White belly, yellow sides, gray scales on top. Little bit of red for the chin. I only fish in the dark so the second part of you question is a no.

Thanks Piemma, Nice color.
The big plug in a school of Peanuts is an automaic for me now. Color seems to make the diff most times. I usually start with all white or white with rend chin or white flash, and experiment from there. When the fish are on peanuts its pretty obvious,so its just a practice in fine tuning, then u smash the barbs and get buzy.

Thats more like what I was talkin bout.3 oz plugs.Like a A-40 or the big danny.works well an always seem to land one of the larger fish.Sometimes gets u just over the bar where the better fish are sometimes...I like the pogie pattern looks nice an all.But I do way better wit white, yellow or chartruse.One o me friends says if it ain't chartruse ther is no use.made a believer out of me.at night chartruse stays home an black comes out.i like solid clors on a danny or a subtle blend from one color to the next.no eyes.or if u must eyes that match the body color well.the plug has to much roll.but a great snakelike action couple that wit a nice bucktail wit about 5 feathers an it comes to life stop the retrive on the back side of a wave an as soon as the next pull starts hold on. |
