Cons Too big and heavy for back-bay use Likely to scare away anything in the vicinity if used in shallow water Requires fairly heavy gear to cast and work correctly Even with a football field-sized school of menhaden (aka bunker) to choose from, the biggest and fattest stripers will seek out an easy meal in the form of a slow, wounded baitfish
