Rebecca Davidson –
Used this bait during a heavy pressure day on a lake. The quivering action and strong scent really drew in bass that had been ignoring other lures. Fished it with a free-rig setup and got multiple strikes in the first hour.
Christopher Welch –
The flux design gives a natural movement that feels like a live minnow. I’ve used it in both mid-strolling and dead sticking. It’s especially effective when the water is cold and fish are shy.
Gordon Robertson –
Great scent retention and consistent performance. Even after 30 minutes in the water, the bait still had a strong aroma. The action is smooth and realistic, making it stand out in crowded conditions.
