Rob,

Thank you for the reply. It was very informative. You just helped me decide on which length I am going to go with. I am new to swimbait fishing and I am eager to catch my first decent swimbait fish. It's a lot different from the finesse fishing I am accustomed to. I have spent so much on equipment to do swwimbait fishing correctly. It's hard enough learning a new method imagine how much harder on the wrong equipment.

At the moment I am chasing trophy stripers from shore at Castaic and Pyramid. When I land one using a trout plug, I will make sure I share it all with you here. Everyone thank you for sharing.

Raymond
