#262, "hm, those work good"
In response to In response to 3


  

          

First hour of chucking the ROF 5 yielded an 8.9 and a 4.65 :) My bait still swims good but the paint over the plastic got munched pretty bad. These fish were toothy and they tore it up. The bait doesn't sink much, and it sinks parallel to the bottom, so I was just chucking and winding, straight wind about 4 or 5 feet down. I used two 2/0 gammie hooks, the trailer connected with wire. The 4lber got the stinger hook, the 8lber ate the bait completely inside it's mouth. I do understand now why a lot of fish are getting off of this bait, it's because of the weight of the lure. I thought the ROF 5 would not be very heavy, but it's still pretty heavy and compact. If you only get one hook in the fish, they can get leverage on it. I can't see any reason not to use a stinger hook on this one.
