I love experimenting with new types of fishing rigs. The idea of progression and constantly learning new techniques is what keeps fishing interesting. Every new artificial bait that you catch a fish on unlocks new mysteries into the psyche and behaviors that governs that particular species. 

I just mail ordered some new WARBLADES from Afran. They are basically a Slayer Swim Jig with a Willow Blade attached to the hook. You fish them similar to a Spinner Bait. Make a long cast, let it sink down and retrieve at a steady pace. When you feel a thump just reel into it to set the hook.  Today was the first day I got to try them out and the fish were all over them. I only got to fish for about half hour before the sun set and I went lobstering, but it was exciting to see the potential of these new WARBLADES.
