Armand, I hear you on the bluefish attacking from the rear, all my old bluefish plugs have their butts chewed and mangled. Not sure what you mean by tuna not be taken on wood. Wood = wood plugs only? Tuna have certainly been taken on plugs in the CCBay.

As to the flexible cable or coated wire assist cord you should poke around on Randy Chins site where you can find stuff like this.

Goggle Anglers Pro Shop - for some reason I can't seem to paste in the URL.
