Although I tend to fish with surface stickbaits more than chuggers these days, I am a bit of a novice with sinking stickbaits, and would appreciate any pointers.
The only sinkers I own are a range of Orion Bigfoots and a few Shimano Ocea Pencil 110 grams sinking version. Have caught fish with both, but would appreciate any other recommendations and suggested retrieval techniques.
I know this will depend a lot on conditions, water depth etc., but do any of you have a rule of thumb for how long you allow the lure to sink before starting the retrieve?
