- Lex 3 1/2oz Darter -

   This enormous darter is even bigger than the Gibbs 3oz darter...and because of rear and center weighting, it casts very well. 7" long and 1 1/4" wide, it's a safe bet that this big fella is one of the LARGEST hand crafted darters you can buy - which is a good thing for you guys that subscribe to the "big wood, big fish" theory. With the herring, hickory shad, and bunker around, this is certainly a good time to put that theory to the test! 

    If it takes a big bait to move a LARGE lazy striper, these should certainly do the trick.  Throw these anywhere you suspect there are big fish or the present fish are feeding on big baits, preferably in some current or wave action. Fish them fast enough to feel them dig, but slow enough not to rush them in :-)  When a fish grabs the plug, resist the burning urge to swing for the fence immediately and continue reeling until you actually feel the fish on the line - then swing for the fence. Good imitation of adult bunker, herring, sea herring, immature weakfish, big snappers, hickory shad, squid, whiting, harbor pollock and just about any of the bigger baits found on the striper coast :-) Keep your hooks sharp, kill only what you can use, and carefully release the rest. The striped bass has never been under so much commercial and recreational fishing pressure - let's lead by example and let some big fish go

   Solid construction, 3X Mustad hooks, through wired, heavy Rosco swivels, and multiple coats of primers, paints, and sealant - weighted in the rear to reduce tumble when you cast - these things are built to get out there and stand up to whatever you can stick with 'em! 

7" long and 3 1/2oz!
