Parker,

I totally agree with your last post. I guess I consider the Wart a casting plug and the Tad a backtrolling plug. I have never even thought about casting a Tad for Coho and rarely backtroll a Wiggle Wart. Last year I bought a bunch of Fat Fish and I rarely used them either.

Fact is I don't pull plugs a whole lot. I only put a plug down when either conditions dictate it (high and fast with moving fish) or when anchored eating a sandwich, cleaning a brat or pissed because the front seater just casted into the trees at the best spot on the run! Still the Tadpolly consistantly catches fish and often times provides me, the rower, with my only fish of the day!

Like a said in my first post. Everybody loves their Tadpolly's!

Of course I don't yet have one of Mike's "Magic Leaf's" though !

B-Run,

My go to Tadpolly is the orange herring bone with the beak dipped in black and a single siwash off the back with a Herzog/Doc twist. I rarely lose fish this way and if I do it is always the front seaters fault as he's still hung up in the damn trees.

I would be interested in everybody's elses go to Tad!
