Geno glad you agree that a castable SP is the way to go ,the biggest problem being that you have to get enough wieght in the jighead to be able to cast it far enough.When you consider that a 5 1/4oz breakout is streamlined for casting you have to get all that lead into a jighead it makes it a bloody big lump of lead.I have a mould comeing that makes a 5 1/4oz jighead but I will use a 5/0 hook.Just been to Fishin & Hunting they have a 4oz jighead with a 7/0 hook and a 6oz jighead with a 9/0 hook I don't see them being the go for surfcasting.Both these are made for boat fishing there was nothing for the surfcaster.
