I’ve used this lure for several weeks now and it consistently hits the right depth. The slow sink rate helps me target fish near the weed line. It’s reliable and performs well in both casting and trolling scenarios.

The balsa construction gives it a natural, smooth swim. I noticed it stays at the desired depth without drifting too far. Great for fishing in dense vegetation.
Edward McDonald –
It works well in my local waters. The hook holds firm and the action is predictable. A bit larger than expected, but that’s fine for my fishing style.

I appreciate the hand-tuned quality. It doesn’t wobble or sink too fast. The depth control is spot-on, especially when fishing near structure.
