Green Mackerel and Black/Silver 6" for kings.
Chillin, have you tried any of the smaller sizes?
I have not. The others seem too light to throw far enough on my 20lb baling wire mono. You would probably do better with lighter line and a better rod than what I use. I bought a spool of 20lb Power Pro braid and I'm gonna top it with some 12lb fluoro to see if I can get better casting distance with the smaller plugs. Bass pro makes a plug that is a dead ringer for the xrap sxr14 that is $9.99 each. Pier #'r probably knows which one I'm referring to.
Yeah, They are $11.49 now, and they are floaters :-(

Anyway, (I'm letting the cat outtadabag here) for the mid range sized plugs I actually prefer the H2O Express Suspending Crankbaits from Academy...
Academy - H2O XPRESS? Suspending Jerk Bait
I've been getting new xraps and standard rapalas for 2.00.....the xraps are deep divers like 4in, and the regular husky jerks are j11-j12's ....hope they catch something this trip when the lures are hitting better then live bait, I'll at least have one rigged for a school of something swimming by to throw quick.
that H2O express looks good, especially the price
