Norto Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Hey all, Just want to know if anyone has used or does use soft plastics from the beach. If so I'm interested to know what sort and how you rig them ? Thanks Norto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjc123 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Hi mate, Sp's are definitely an option from the sand. Same sort of rigs should work but the retrieves are a little different. The double twitch style technique can work but its all about experimenting. Sometimes they'll hit it as soon as it hits the water, other times you'll struggle. A fast wind and pause repeated over and over should be a good starting point. Summer/Autumn is best for this though! cheers, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been just dead sticking though could be the problem also. Norto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norto have you heard of/tried using 'surf poppers'? http://www.fishraider.com.au/Invision/index.php?showtopic=63267 i read that you can even rig up a SP on a hook with no jig head to work a similar way... i'm gonna try it off the beach when I head down to Gerroa next week Edited July 10, 2012 by user1829 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
