Again, thanks. Love the learning curve, even if I fail later. Applying the thought process will be great.
Short leads for active fish up high off the reefs in deeper water usually along the Can line on the North end and East side of the firing range. As stated those bottom huggers are negative fish. DDHJ work better at slower speeds and the Reef 800's work better at slightly faster speeds as the water warms up some. I am not a crank bait guy but do know there is a sweet spot in speed that both the DDHJ and Reef 800's work simultaneously. Maybe some crank bait guy will chime in.
