Hi ,
has anyone fished one yet? if so how were the results? and if you dont mind sayin how did you fish it? I thought of trying it silver buddy style on the bottom as it gets colder up here in the central coast.
Thnks, Happy Turkey day All!!!

Haven't caught any fish on one, but looks pretty cool in the water. BWW had them all marked down before they closed so I snagged a couple. Pretty much have the same action as a fluke, but hard instead of soft and hanging trebles instead of weedless. Personally, I'd rather throw a fluke most of the time just because I can put them in places I don't want treble hooks, but I'm sure this lure has its place. Boiling fish or stripers in open water would be a good bet.

I bought one when they first came out. I've caught a few fish on them by casting them at boils and letting them flutter down. If you try fishing it like you would a Fluke or jerkbait, I would imagine you will have the same problem I did, and that is the hooks tangling in the line. With no lip the bait will spin when it's jerked and almost without fail the hooks always fouled.
