Sculptured, naturally shaped body designs, lifelike 3-D Lazer Eyes, the extra-loud rattles and hot finishes that replicate the natural colorization process (becoming more pronounced in direct sunlight, and somewhat less intense under the surface). All styles are equipped with premium extra-sharp hooks!
Cast it out, crank it down five or six turns, and let it sit. Give it a little jerk or two. Sit. Repeat. We've precisely weighted this lifelike minnow to make it neutrally buoyant, so it'll stay in the strike zone all the way in—and added extra-loud rattles so anything lurking nearby won't miss a beat. Wham!

Rated 5 out of 5Â by WaiKwokLi The best bait I spent on
This bait is great. All fish want to have a bite on it, even a 5 inch crappie took a bite on it. The bait does not dive very deep were I fish its right in the strike zone. pickerels love this, I caught a 20inch pickerel. They hit so hard they almost pulled me into the water!. The best color for me would be the chrome blue back and the table rock shad. Best hard bait I ever used.

how is this gonna work in winter time....a january february out here in marylandright now it is pretty cold about 30-36 degrees and is supposed to warm to 45 this weekend....will this produce some pond bass for me
(read all my Q&A)
Answers
A:Â
probably not the best choice for a cold water bait in mid winter as it does not stay in strike zone for a long time where sluggish bass can pick it up
A:Â
Not so much on a lake. In the Winter Bass are in very deep water in the lake. However I fish both ponds and lakes and ive still had success with it in ponds unlike lakes. In the spring it does great for me anywhere..Answers

Once you cranked the handle 5 or 6 times, how deep will the lure go? Also when you retreive, will the lure stay at the same depth?
Answers
A:Â
This suspending bait tends to sink rather than suspend. I have used several of them and all of them had a slow sink rate rather than a suspention.A:Â
I've found that if you give it one good jerk once it hits the water, it's about 2'-3'. If you give it another jerk, it's at about 3'-4'. It varies slightly because the diving motion is slightly erratic.As you retrieve, depending on your speed and rod-tip angle, it may dive down to about 6'+, or it can maintain a constant depth.
If you retrieve it with your rod-tip pointed up, you can operate this lure like a floater, maintaining about 1'-2' depth all the way in.

This is a mystery! Theres things to note. Mono line or floro, Mono will make the lure slowly rise, Florocarbon will allow the lure to work correctly i have got it swimming at depths of 5ft, But best way to fish this lure is to twitch and jerk this and BIG FISH GRAB ITA:Â
About three feet at the slow speed we were reeling. It seemed to stay at that depth. Must be trolled slow. 2.8 mphA:Â
Approximately two - four feet, depending on the length od the cast!A:Â
Probably averaging 4' - 5' on depth. The lure generally stays at about the same depth as long as the rod tip is pointed down and you are not reeling in too fast.

depends but around 4 feet at averageA:Â
I use a good copolymer line so when I crank the handle 5 or 6 times the lure is usually around 4'. your depth may vary depending on your type of line and the gear ratio on you reel.All the lures I have bought from Bass Pro Shops -1 suspend perfectly, if you run in to one that rises just add split rings to the split rings on the front and or middle hooks and you can solve that problem, if it falls then change to smaller split rings, just not to small. This takes just a few seconds and is very worth the time.
A:Â
This lure will crank down between 4 and 7 feet. Once I have this lure to the depth I want it generally stays at that depth throughout my retrieve.1 of 1
