Who Throws Rubber?????What kind in the FALL????????

Storm's. Tsunami's, Sluggo's, Fin-S', Ronzi's, Striper Magnet's, Gulp's, you name it, I used 'em or use 'em still. Not always, but at a spot or two the requires them. :)

Fishing the creeks near me, i like to use a darker colored fin-s.

I like the regular storm shads, but have also had great success with the suspending shads...either the smaller 4" susspending shad in ghost, or the larger 6" suspending mullet. The past season I've taken a liking to Tsunami's pearl shads. Have a few sluggos rigged up as well, but haven't caught on them yet.

I throw the ones pictured above, storm?

unfortunately, I haven't caught anything on them yet. They swim cool though

hooks seem kinda wimpy though

For the longest time, all I've ever used was a 6" white grub on a jighead. I catch stripers, blues, fluke, weakies on them. Day or night, it produces for me. I've tried pinkies, but never seemed to do well with them. I did pick up some Storm Shads at the OC Flea Market and will give them a shot.

Try the tsunami in pearl/spot.

.......

Rigged slugs and swim shads!!!! Oh and I forgot Surf Hog pleasure sticks DJ Coast got me into them,Thanks Bud now get your butt back on the east coast :afro:

zoom super flukes!

Yum Dingers for me please

I have had plenty of luck with pink finS in the great bay area. i started using storm shad pearl with dot last fall, now I loaded up on them. also picked up some of the black sluggos heard good things about them, only time will tell

haven't thrown much in this department yet, but I stocked up on some Storm Shads Pearl w/spot, got a 9" blue back tsunami to try out for the beginning of this season... got a whole variety of other stuff that I am going to try this year also... got some white BKD Bass Kandy that look really cool...hope to get some action on them as well... Even got some pink Fin-S to try under some bridges this year also!!

TTT What Rubber do you throw in the ?Fall? I love the gulp sand eel as a teaser how bout the rest of you????

I'm pretty much a fan of rubber, my 2 favorites are a 7 inch fin_s, and a 6 inch shad for stripers. In the spring(inside) I use the fin_s about 60% of the time, and a 6 inch shad in white pearl with spot about 40% of the time, but come fall(again inside) I use the 6 inch shad excludively, in golden bunker finish. I don't even carry any other lures with me in the fall.

I find the Tsunami shad vastly superior to the Storm shad. The storm shad has a very thin tail section, and tends to get torn off easily. More importantly, because it's so thin and flexible, it tends to get caught on the hook during the cast about 25% of the time, making for a lot of wasted retreives. I don't encounter any such problems with Tsunami shad.

And if the blues have already vacated, one Tsunami shad will last like forever. I caught 20 bass on this one last fall, all but one fish being a keeper I believe. I was so impressed I retired the shad and mounted it, LMAO.

When a plug doesn't work time to put on a rubber!

over here in the uk sidewinder eels seem to be making a bit of a killing, havent noticed you chaps mention them, do you not have them over there or are they by a different name, they are much the same as shads but more thinner and streamilined

I liked the storm shads 5"-6" but found that the tsunami shads out produce the storms for me.Don't know why but I use them now.
