X2 on Mr. Champ. Use the Sidewinder also.
I've used them in the surf and also dragged them on the bottom in bayous and deep pits along LA 1 around the Grand isle area. Deadly when its cold and reeled in slow. You'll catch trout, reds and flounder on them. Gold is best in the marsh, but silver has better success in the surf IMO. Only problem w/ them in the surf are the bluefish and smacks (Spanish mackeral) because they like that flash. They'll bite right through mono or a leader that's not steel.
