The Paras I was looking at had 6 inch hair forward & back and heads the same color as the hair. White, pink or chart. I would think crimping the eye of a stinger hook on or tying in a stinger and putting a big strip might shoo the shorts away and be better for the size of the fish I'm seeing in the pics from the east and north fork
Fluke question
I'm sitting around the tackle shop today playing marketing manager and rearranging the wall when something dawned on me. In place of big bucktails, had anyone tried using a 4-oz Par-A-Chute in place of a Spro or Smilin' Bill for fluke. Stands to reason that the fluke we are targeting want something big and the parachute hair makes them BIG. Head is the same as a mondo-sized Smilin' Bill. Cost-wise, a 4-oz chute costs 80 cents more than a 3-oz Smilin Bill where I am. And the double hair on the chute gives more life to the lure and more closely represents the local squid.
Food for thought.
