hey man if you are wanting to use just plastics i would recomend using a small jig with a tube as a trailer. just get a small jig head and tread on a everday rubber jig. you can get them in an assortment box at pretty much every fishing tackle shop. just cast them out let it hit the bottom and start reeling. about every two to three cranks twitch it upwards and let is fall again and while it is falling start reeling again to take up the slack. once the slack is taken up twitch upwards acouple more times. and same thing over and over till you get it back to you. man i hope that helps you a little. good luck good fishin be safe and remember to share the experience
I have recently been trying out soft plastics and let me share what i have learnt so far. Soft plastics come in many different types, scented/floating/colours...etc So far i have experimented with the swimming fish type and worm type. Its is first important to choose a suitable size soft plastic and the correct jig head size and weight. For soft plastics worms, one of my favourite rigs is the drop shot method. This allows me to rig up more than one lure per rig and it allows me to cover the seabed and a short distance above it. Soft plastic worms can also be tied directly to the leader line. For this method, you can try dragging and bouncing the lure on the seabed. For Plastic fishes, i prefer to reel in the lure, let it settle, jerk it a few times, before reeling in again. Retrieve speed, dept and number of pauses can be varied accordingly. It is important to experiment to find the most suitable rig and retrieve method. Currently, i have use brands such as storm, river to sea, some japanese brands.
