You know its a good lure when you're pulling in bass on a day with a heat index of 110'f. Bass fishing slows WAY down in the middle of summer in minnesota so a lure that catches big bass in mid august is one I can't wait to use come fall
go for a gloomis swim bait rod you cant go wrong with it. i myself have a record reel and i put it on the swim bait rod great for light tackle cod fishing and bointo
im looking for a rod to pair up with my abu garcia record. i am primarily fishing for inshore rockfish, halibut, calico bass, and small bonito. my budget is 250 dollars can you reccomend me a rod plz

There's so many places to fish there in Cali. But mostly around FRESNO, try Pine Flat and kings river for Largemouth and trout. Great trout plant program at kings river. Also, lost lake is a good place for good trout. Millerton is great for stripers by the dam and bass. Outside of Fresno and just a couple of hours away, try Eastman and Hensley Lake. Also, O'niel Forebay (my fav.) for stripers. Located in Los Banos, approx. 1.5-2hrs away. hope that helps!
yea. i lived in fresno for 21 years. born n raised there. fishing here is tight bcus we r allowed to catch live shad within the lake system n use them as bait. unlike the delta canal and o'neil forebay (152, los banos) where its illegal. a lot of fun. but 4 sure, holla at me.
they shouldn't... can't wait to get my hands on them... greatest swimbaits out right now... i'd get these over the tru tungsten 4" swimbaits any day! bill simental freak'n owns with the bbz!!!
Like I said brother, I got 5 of 'em. If you want 2, let me know. haha. I got a fast sink and a slow sink. Not really much of what I expected but I give it a 8/10 for Overall rating. Either I'm going to sell it privately or post 'em up on ebay. I'll hook you up $42 for both of them. That's including shipping! You'll save about $10-12 compared to retail stores!
any luck with them so far? why'd you buy 5? hahahah... i would take them off you but i just bought a new fishing pole... e21 carrot gold... it's gonna sitt'n me back a bit... still gonna get sum later... i'll prob get sum in the spring... thanks for looking out tho...
I got them because I live in Vegas and I do a lot of striper/bass fishing. They were bought with the intention of my brother using them as well. But holla at me if you think you're going to buy some. I'll hook an asian brother up. haha. hmoob you know what i'm saying. also my bro. works at the bass pro shop so.. yea.. holla at me. late!
damn! vegas? i didn't know any hmoob folks live up there!?! that's cool... i was formerly from fresno but now chilln in tulsa... man... how's the fishing there? damn... i wanted to work at basspro too... strickly for the discounts! hahahah... yeah bro, but if you still have them when i'm ready to buy... i'll holla... thanks

@dfg297lpopdirk it does but 4 inch is the smallest that floats, the smaller ones are sinkers.

All I got to say is make sure you have a strong line and don't buy the slow sinker. Get the floater if possible.

I caught a nice large mouth bass on this lure.
It was the wicked perch colour.

Serves him right for waisting money on an overpriced lure.

If you've ever fished with one of these and seen what you could catch with them, you wouldnt think they're overpriced...

its overprized, for that amount of money u can buy 2 savage gear 4 play's which are better and i think it has better dimensions for pike 2

@MonoRacer I'll admit its pricy, but its paid for itself several times over in tournament winnings.
cameltoejoe69 1 year ago
@MonoRacer i bought 3 of the smaller ones and hope to use them soon. the small ones are ok priced compared to this big one on this.

Grab you up a Daiwa Zillion Swim bait rod.. nothing comes close to that series of rods in the 200-250 price range! they are hella sweet sticks.

Lure is great but due to it being lip-lis, you usually get the lure floating on top mostly. whether it's slow sink or fast sink. I got 5 of them.
