Anybody use these for ladyfish or anything else off the surf? I've had luck in the past but I don't here them mentioned as much as the gotchas. Anybody use the teasers that come with them?

A gold spoon is a really good for redfish, but I would prefer a jig in the surf.  I don't think I have ever actually selected any lure with ladyfish in mind as a target that I can remember.  Pretty much they will eat a cigarette butt if it is moving fast enough. 

I don't know if I helped or not, but there ya go.

Ladyfish, bluefish, mackeral and redfish will eat them in the surf...People prefer jigs(forpompano) and gotchas beacause they cast further it think

I like to catch my ladyfish on a gotcha too.  Have you ever live baited them?

You can catch pretty much everything on a johnson sprite. My ideal surf lure is like a 1/2-1 oz diamond jig or something similar. You can fire it a long way and it works well for ladies, blues, etc.

I haven't tried the gotchas. I hope they have a few at half hitch tackle.
