I agree with you guys, the last thread was getting too deep. Digging thru page after page for pics and info sux so, we'll start a new thread. Although, 36,000+ views is almost worthy of a Sticky, lol.
The new vid posted is quite remarkable. The footage was filmed on a GoPro Hero 3, all on the same day, same place, same fish, same depths, same speed (can't account for tide changes).
It was filmed by a reputable guiding outfit on the West Coast that has been in operation for decades. In fact, most everyone on the coast knows the owner or has heard of him. He has no stake in Jughead nor is there any reason for manipulating the footage. Just an un-paralleled curiosity into what makes fish "tick".
These are real fish and are not paid actors

I've had some comments from people saying that they can't get Jughead to work beside the boat. Well, the truth be told, Jughead needs water above as well as below. If you're trying to see the action by hanging Jughead over the rail like a teaser head, you're just going to see Jughead wiggle the bait/lure then roll up and flop on the surface. It's trying to barrel-roll. As soon as it grabs air, its over. Jughead is not a teaser head, teaser heads roll specifically. Jughead is a Head Shaker - a new niche in sportfishing.
If it wasn't for my GoPro Hero 2 a couple yrs ago, we probably wouldn't be talking about Jughead right now because that's exactly what my first prototype did. Then I put the GoPro down, processed the footage at home later and then watched to see if I even got Jughead in the lens.
Needless to say my jaw dropped when I saw the action. Jughead was everything and more than I expected.
Watch the vid, please comment if you wish, good or bad. All input is constructive.
I will gather up all the colour options I've been playing with and post them soon.
The following pics are of the deadliest set-up I've ever used. If it swims in the ocean, this rig will catch it (use beads not Gum Pucky's). In fact, porpoises have tore a few of these off my lines, my shoulders will never be the same.
