Great points you give to fish the Lucky Craft in my opinion the reason why you don't get strikes on the Lucky Craft is because the fish are not interested in a minnow type bait but are feeding on the crustaceans but if you notice bigger fish such as stripers, halibut, bigger perch, corbina, Croaker's will attack the Lucky Craft because they can catch up to it. As to fishing the Lucky Craft in Wind or rough water try casting sidearm this will get you under the wind and get more distance

finally someone that explain this LUCKY CRAFT thing... lots of Videos pushing the "LURE" BUT NOONE tells you that the weather conditions and the ocean conditions have to be ideal or else you waste your time casting the length of your nose. Thank you.

Many times when I want a more compact connection I will cut the swivel off of a quality stainless steel snap and just use the snap. Still gives you quick lure change with great action to the lure.

Don't add weight to the lure. It ruins the action that the lure is popular for. The action is caused by the internal weights in the lure that make it move around like a fish. It's better to use a different lure, like a 1 or 2 (or whatever) ounce lure to match the conditions. I like to keep a 1.5 ounce spoon on me just in case. Tight lines!

OK, DH... hit near Santa Cruz, morning tide coming in... caught first red tail with the LC Flash Minnow. Lost another in a wave. But, I think I have an SP metallic sardine? One of the two caught me that 25" striper on Monday. (Dude was fishing grass shrimp just a ways down from me... says he fishes the Delta for sturgeon. Man, he was hauling in BIG perch on those.) Ended up with 8 keepers today, Red Tail, but no giant ones. Think I'm losing fish by trying to horse them in through the waves if they are bigger. Best day at the beach so far. But, yeah, almost too easy with the gulp. Blackened Striper on the menu tonight!
