What's up Scotty?

I am not sure about the Osprey in this pattern, but I fish the Optimum baits in this color scheme all the time. I fish the sinking baits alot and they get bit regardless of the water clarity and depth. I've caught fish at every lake around with this color.

The original maker of the bait gave me some in this pattern years ago. He said it was a favorite from the guys in the know. I took that on good faith and left them in my box for a long time. Finally one day when I got frustrated I broke down and tied one on. I got a nice 7 and several bumps in the same area that I had thrown a REAL looking immitation!!!

Since so many guys are chucking swim baits these days I can't see why having a bait with a different contrast won't hurt. Let me know what the skinny is?
