Raymond,
I've been absent for a long time so I applogize. I to am trying to learn to use plastics and not success. We have a fishing friend, we met ( Paty & I ) at the hot hole in Belmont. This guy uses plastics and limits on Bass everytime we see him. James, just has the touch. He can be fishing next to two or three people, and he will score the Bass. I haven't seen him catch anything less than 3 and many more over that. I think he spits on the Green Lizard he normally uses, and that's the key. He is open and has shown me his thing, so if I ever have the success he has I will share it with you. Makes me crasy, to be near him and he plunks one out, using the same plastic.
he uses Californai rig, 3/4 ounce oval, and mostly green lizard. Hope- fully by now you found the secret and are the plastic bass master.
Talk to you later.
