Used this lure in both clear and murky waters. The wobble action and rattle draw in bass and trout consistently. Works well when back-trolling at depth. Solid performance and reliable strike triggers.
Rebecca Young –
Felt the jointed body gives a realistic minnow movement. The rattle adds extra appeal in low-visibility conditions. A bit heavy for finesse fishing, but effective for deeper zones.
Alan Bailey –
Great for both casting and trolling. The slow-sinking design lets me control depth precisely. Fish are reacting to the wobble and sound. Highly recommended for deep-water fishing.
