#3389, "6" TT, Wake Jr Actions..."


          

Hi guys
I spent all day yesterday at Casitas fishing the shorelines throwing the 6"TT and Wake Jr.
The 6" TT's action on a slow to med retrieve was erratic, well not really erratic there is just a lot of action. A slow retieve is just beautiful : ) . I noticed the bait will roll to a side slightly on any retrieve, is this normal? I tied straight to the eye with 15lb. That bait is a SS.

I was also throwing a 8" Floater that has no problem doing a 180. Is this move only achieved on the Floaters? On the SS 6" I would try that move with a twitch and the bait kinda wanted to : ) but then it would kind of spaz and SS slowley. I really like it tho.

The Wake Jr on a medium to med fast retrieve sinks down to about 2 ft with alot of action but with a really noticeable wobble, is this normal? I was using 20ib and I did have a split ring that I tied to.

I had made about 60 casts throughout the morning with Wake Jr and had no fouling on the cast. Later in the afernoon I had like 6 or 7 casts were the bait would foul on the cast. I kind of adjusted to a semi sidearm cast and it seemed to help. Could it have been fatigue? Or style casts? I was using a Okuma XH, 20lb on a Curado 300.

BTW I was also throwing a Socal Swimbait its a 6 1/2 jointed bait and it really looked great it looked better than a MS and it has a very loud clacking that I could hear like 25 yards out. I really don't know if that's good because its my first time throwing a noisy bait. It actually sounded louder than the Wake Jr.

Anyway this was my first time throwing all these baits except for the 8" TT.
I thru the above baits along with 6" baits, Wagtail, Hudd, and Baitsmith. I had 4 followers in 10 hours. Any suggestions on what to do when you get followers?

Thanks guys

Btw, I'm thinking of selling some 8 and 10 inch TT in ss, not sure, but you can pm me if interested.
