Chris... You're letting everyone in on my secret bait. I've seriously been throwing these for years and recently thought they were discontinuing them until I found out they were making them better!!
Mojo- I have always had success with these when rigged on everything from bucktails to plain jigheads to plain hooks used as teasers. How do you like to rig them and what species do you target with them?
Chris... I typically rig them on a 1/16 or 1/8 jig and hammer the trout and reds. Pearl Watermelon has always been my go to in good water conditions. Deadly in the spring... Match the hatch!!
