I “plan”, (no real plan at the moment but rather an intention), to try for cuda on the flats as I hear great success with waxwings also. The next time I go out there, wife & wallet permitting, I hope to sneak a chance and validate for myself.

I'm declining to say that the waxwing lives up to it's hype right now and only recently just heard they work on pike, muskie and stripers.

Cool. Friends of mine took them to Florida and fished for mahi, blackfin tuna, little tunny, and kingfish in Marathon, FL, and friends on west coast use them for yellowtail, yellowfin tuna and mahi. I've yet to get some myself...yet to have a chance to really use them.
