i love fishing the reation innovations swamp donkey, for some reason alot of people have a hard time hooking fish on them, but ive been fishing them sence they came out and have had great hook up ration with them, i love the bird colord one and the green top, i do trim the legs, add a rattle inside, and add a split ring on the nose, then i go to town with the 65lb braid(even though theres like no grass in san diego)
