I have recently gotten into the big jointed swimbaits, like gan craft, mega bass, etc. I think I have the right set up and have tried several. I need some help on a few things though. I am using 25lb big game and 25 lb fluoro as well.. First of all I cant seem to get the bait to go much deeper than a foot at best. Secondly, I have a caught a few nice ones, but have seen many monsters following it to the boat. I had 5 over 40 lbs following it last weekend around a bridge. I am trying to make myself trY a quick snap, stop and go when I'm getting close to the boat but that hasn't seemed to get any more bites. These big plugs don't throw real far but weigh about 3-5 ounces. Im using an8 foot rod and Lew's wide spool super duty reel. Any advice on these big baits would be appreciated. Thanks!
