i caught about 6 or 7 bass on them the other day...twithcing them and reeling them in...nothing huge...2 or 3 nuce ones about 2-3lbs..the rest were on a white mini spinnerbait....its hard to detect a strike..i dont think i got one hook set with them..went to reel and the fish took off almost taking the rod out of my hands......i cant wait till we get teh boat in maybe sunday...that means tons of fishing time on the river....and i heard my uncle is thinking of fishing....so me and him can go out alone on the boat and actually fish.....i will probably be teaching him because i dont think he knows to much about it...his dad past away when he was young and he really never fished except once in a while....i have a catfishing partner now atleast.....there easy to catch and fun.....i think i can get him hooked into fishing by teaching him the basics or bait fishing...then move up to lures for bass ect...i cant wait to get to the boat docks......vertcal jigging for bass and eyes off the docks....theres a bridge within 100yds of the parking lot and a hole by the pillar that looks nice and deep....and the runs in front and behing the pillar look great...i cant wait....thanx guys....they are a great lure.....
