has anybody had any luck with this stuff?
I'm going to bass pro shops tomorrow and might pick some up but i want some opinions first
 
dont waste your money

I recomend Wave worm Tiki sticks in bleeding shad and zoom lizards in watermelon

I have used them before, they work ok, no better than some of the other plastic swim baits, i have had better luck with the storm rattiln split tail minnow. berkely blade dancers are great for trout and the bigger one are good for just about anything, I caught over 50 fallfish this year so far, on the gold blades with the black bodies. Just a thought. Although you can never have enough lures.
 
ok, let me just say...the crap works like crazy!!!!! but i've only had success with it in saltwater. im here socal and i buy the stuff by the bucket for when i take my 5 y.o. fishing and he usually out does me. i've tried the freshwater stuff, and really never had good days. but i do agree with some previous posts, for bass it works about the same.
 
i was going to buy the saltwater version, thanks
im going after stripers, blues, and flounder:)
 
NO NO NO NO NO

honestly that about the dumbest crap ive ever heard in my life
freshwater you cant beat the ol' senko worm

why would you use that crap for saltwater? ive never heard of that working, are you fishing from a pier? where at, if so good luck with that

youd be better off throwing squid for flounder, chunked shad or bunker for striper, as fresh as you can get it, makes all the difference
if you dont have the money for frozen bait, then go with the berkely but you will notice you catch almost zilch, buy a bunker snagger and get as many as you can if a school runs by
in this case my opinion is the truth
 
if anything just throw buck tails or slugo. fin s or the yum shads or dingers for stripers, awesome for schoolies
 
The stuff is really insane for SW!

For FW I swear by the Gulp "smelt" when bouncing jigs for sauger. I landed this trophy 24" sauger on a day when there were so many people out there we were practically elbow to elbow but I was the only consistently catching fish. I accredit that to my uniquely gifted fishing abilities as well as to the Gulp as everyone else was using regular ole curly tails.
