FCL Labo CSPS180 ( sinking Lure) It seems that a lot of people believe that sinking lures don't catch Kingfish. But they do!!!!  These lures dip down but can still be seen from the surface so you still see the hit, they go only a little lower than floating lures but don't break the surface as much as a Gamma on the pause. Don't think that lures like Baby Runbohs, Orion Bigfoots and FCL Labo CSPS won't catch Kingys. Infact this sinking lure got more attention from the Kingys than the Hammerhead Cherry Pai's but the Carpenter Gamma still got smashed the most!!!! s    |
