| You will probably be fishing it for only a few seconds before a dragger will hit on it! That has to be a first. I would think that the best time to use it would be during the Spring Bass run when the bass come in to the shallows are foraging for whatever they can find (large masses of bait fish such as one finds in the Fall may not be present then). Let us know how you make out with it. You must really love to dream up new lures and you certainly have a talent for making them. I noticed that the attachment point is recessed back somewhat to provide some action. To me, it seems to want to be moved over the bottom just like a natural flounder, maybe even stirring up a slight amount of mud as one would raise the tip of one's rod. |
