I just bought the 2 3/8" version with the Chatruese Pearl, Purple Tiger, and the Black Silver colors. I am mainly targeting Bass, Saugeye, and Pike....although the lake (Alum Creek) that I fish know is known for Muskies.

Up here in Canada, it is a very good lure for walleye and sauger when trolling behind a boat.I caught also small musky on this lure.

Well, I never had to tune it, because it ran right just out of the box for me...great walleye catching lure.
A:
Tuning a flicker shad or shad style crankbait is much like tuning any other style of crankbait. Make sure to make changes slowly and at small clips so that you do not overcorrect and have another problem.The first problem may be with the bill of the bait itself. If the edges are cracked or rough, you may need to sand the bill down just a bit with a nail file.
Also, if any hooks are bent, be sure to straighten these out to normal form.
The third possible way to try is slightly bending the bill of the bait. Be sure not to put to much pressure as this may crack the body of the bait. Bend the bill towards the direction that you want the lure to run.
There are many other tricks to making this process work, but these tend to be the major ones. Expirementation with your baits is one of the quickest remedies because there is no one true fix, and truly, no two baits are alike.

Yep. . .when trolling a nearby lake, whether flatlining or pulling leadcore I start with a Flicker Shad on one of my lines. Depending upon the day, the FS may be one of my best producers.A:
Yes this lure can catch rainbows if you can keep it near the top of the water.
A:
Trout are carnivorous fish and will take smaller trout fry, minnows, and other small fish prey. The best suggestion when trying to see what the fish will bite is to try and match exactly what the fish eat in the waterway that they are in. Keep in mind that the favorite food of a particular species in one water body may be different than those in other water bodies. An excellent resource to contact about what may be the best to use in your area is your local conservation agent.Details:
Which color seems to work best for trolling walleye. ThanksAnswers
A:
I wish there was an easy answer, but unfortunatley theres not. I would have say that the more natural looking cranks are a must have in your tacklebox.Now with that being said, darker, dirtier, and stained water may require the brighter and more wacky color combinations to produce fish.
If i had to pick only 4 colors to own they would be: blue/silver, black/silver, black/gold, and firetiger. they seem to produce more consistently than any other colors for me.
Best of luck to you! And honestly get as many colors as you can afford because they all have a time and place for catching walleyes ;)
A:
perch colorA:
walleyes are attracted primarily by the action of a lure, they are most likely to hit a nite crawer with a slow wabling spinner blade worked slowly.A:
Depends on the lake and the day. In my recent experience purple has worked very well. However, any given day will bring about different color choices. You want to be able to offer several colors so you can find the "color of the day". If one doesn't work, be ready to change to a different color until you find one they like. Generally speaking, on bright days, use bright colored lures and on dark/cloudy days, use darker colors.A:
depend on the water clarity and the type of water your fishing.clear lakes the natural colors and metalics work well.early morning,twilight bright colors are the ticket.Stained to dirty water try bright and colorful combos,Firetiger in blue or green is a hot ,dirty water color
A:
match the hatch - we have had luck with the shad color (natural perch, black silver and pearl white)

A:
can get to 18 using lead core &100' outA:
#5 10 TO 12 FEET. #7 12 TO 16'. EACH LURE COMES WITH DIVE CHART ON 10# LEST. ALSO SHOWS IN PRECISION TROLLING BOOK. IT'S A MUST HAVE FOR ANYONE DOING ALOT OF TROLLING. BOOKS SHOWS TROLLING DEPTH FOR MANY LURE AND SEPARATE READINGS FOR EACH SIZE OF LURES.A:
10ftA:
No deeper than 10 ft and it must be slow or they will roll on you.A:
Between 8' to 10' and that will depend on the type line you use to how far you cast.A:
10 to 14ft on a long cast at 1.9 mphA:
This depends if using the 1/8 or the 1/4 oz. The 1/4 will run deeper and this depends on boat speed/trolling speed. The 1/4 oz can get down to 8 -10 feet trolling. 1/8oz about 3-4 feet which is awesome when trolling the Little Northfork River at Bull ShoalsA:
Did not troll with it. But it would probably wiggle to fast!A:
I use 10# fireline when long line trolling and can get down about 15'
A:
With 100+ feet of line out should reach the stated 14ft. deep. depends on line dia. Try fluorocarbon its more dense and sinks faster. Good Fishing!!A:
depends on length of line and speed of troll. on average 14-16 feet -120 feet of lineAnswers
A:
depends on how deep you want to go. Both sizes perform wellA:
I prefer 3"A:
number 5 flicker shadA:
I WOULD TRY BOTH SIZE 5 & 7. LET THE EYES TELL YOU WHICH ONE THEY PREFER.A:
I've had my best luck on the 7 cm bait. Your best bet is to try and match the size of the bait to the forage base in the river.A:
Two inchs would be the better choiceA:
The size would depend on the average depth of the location and the size of the fish. You will catch a lot of varying sizes of fish on the smaller version. The larger version is easier to cast on baitcast equipment and culls some of the smaller fish. I use both to match the hatch and location.

A:
2" works well in heavy curant and catches lots of fishA:
Both work great. Look for the forage (shad, minnows, etc) in the river you will be fishing and size your lure to match as close as possible.A:
two or three inch model i always go small with my lures though. It also depends on the size of what they are eating.A:
To be honest, @ $4.99 per lure, I would by a 2" and a 3". The lure is awesome. I now own 3 of them myself in different colors. If you do only want to purchase one, I would tell you that the size depends on the size and species of fish your after. If your going for big rainbows/salmon then you'll want a 3". Im sure you get the point. I am curious to find out how you do with this lure in a river though! I have only used it in lakes. Good Luck and Tight Lines!1 of 1
