Finally in on the action (May 8th)

[Aaron&Julie]

Thanks, everyone.
Nelz, it's okay about that bent hook, it lasted just long enough for Aaron to land it. Unfortunately, Julie's fish just unbuttoned on the bait hook.
Those Storm plugs are great. We actually learned about them (we think) through Iceman and MKnott last year, when we could only find them in the green/yellow pattern. We bought a couple anyway, but hadn't scored on that color yet. When we saw the blue/white 2 weeks ago, we jumped on it. $12 for the 2 of them, and they've already paid for themselves and then some.
There are 6 things that are great about them:
1) Good color scheme
2) They float, so if you stop paddling you don't have to worry about it sinking and hanging you up on kelp
3) They dive fairly deep
4) They vibrate like hell, which has to be getting some fishes attention
5) Inexpensive, most other plugs this size run you $12-20
6) They work
