Barracuds/Slime Logs. - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

taggermike · 05-19-2012, 12:31 PM

The cuda have been pretty rare in So Cal the last few years but it sounds like they're making a real show this year. I have caught loads of big cuda on the yak and they can be a PITA. They usually not too picky and will take a slash at about any thing. I stay away from the cracks and trolling plugs because cuda all ways seam to never quite stop thrashing and multiple trebles+thrashing fish are bad news. The plugs rip the cuda up too. I'll second the Tady C with the single fixed hook. I don't think color is too important because after an hour or so the jigs don't have any paint left on them. Mike
