I got myself one of the skinny needlenose GT icecream plugs a while back. Tried it once in sort of calm conditions but was not really impressed because I could hardly see the lure on the water during the retrieve.
This morning conditions were super glassy and the sea like a lake and I gave the skinny a good go. Did not catch anything, but did this plug impress me! This must surely be one of the fastest true surface lures out there and it sticks to the water like a magnet to metal. I retrieved it with my Stradic reel as fast as possible and yet this plug does not tumble and gives a sleek quiet wake even at super high speed. And you simply cast the 1.5 oz plug a mile on a 11 ft Assassin Amia rod. It is surely a plug like no other I have fished before.
This lure must drive any fast game fish wild when conditions are right. It will not leave my lure bag ahain and will be reserved for those rare days when the sea is really flat and one requires a plug with not a lot of noise on water surface.
I don't know how many of you tried a skinny before, but you should give it a go!
