On occasion when I am looking for bigger ones I have, not this year yet, but previously, they do work. Problem is, they do't look like the usual bait, but they are too big for the ilttle shakers. As far as an Apex, no, but I don't see why they wouldn't. Winters are NOT choosy,

I'ved used Apex's with good success, especially cop car and army truck patterns.

yeah take bait...because the bait doesn't last as long when fishing deep i like to fish till i hit a pocket of fish and then put down bait for a while to see if i can coax a big one, when the bight slows down I'll usually switch back to plastic/spoon.....leader length is definately important, as with hootchies the amount of leader and diameter of line determines how much action the flasher puts on the lure...so i am pretty firm on short leaders for winter fish....the fish don't seam to be holding near structure is what i meant I know of a few people doing well at the tide lines, i was doing well in 200-300' of water in becher bay......

thanx for the info siwash i always fish a shorter leader for the winters as well, about 27-34 inches for the hootchies and just a tad longer for the spoons. are you going out this weekend at all? the weather report looks to be good. I will be launching at jocks on saturday morning.

hey salty do you just want to pick the boat up after work at like 5:30-6:00 and tow it to your house or even drop it off at mine. That will save the trip into town at 9:00. that way you can see what is on there for gear. yeah and maybe you can wash her as well shes a little dirty

Just wondering if anybody will be launching at jocks in the morning, wouldn't mind going out with another boat if anyone is up for it. Salty and i will be there first light.
