Something good came out the lockdown, after all the good reading on here, I've got back in to softbaiting for snapper and kingfish. For the latter, I was looking for a stick bait alternative that was easy to fish. Those Hogy lures looked really good in the water, but I needed to add a big jig head to get the casting distance and that killed the action. In the past, I've got a few kingfish on paddle tails retrieved fast at the end of a snapper drift, so decided that paddle tails were the way forward. Couldn't find anything big enough here, so looked to China and got something I really like, no fish on it yet though. Those Z-Man 7 and 8 inch paddle tails look like they would be awesome for the job too.
