Field Notes

Best for clear to lightly stained water when bass are feeding on baitfish. Work it with sharp twitches and pauses around points, weed edges, and suspended fish; the 7'–9' dive depth makes it useful for mid-depth presentations. The gold/black finish is a strong shad-style option for pressured fish or low-light conditions.

Pros

  • Realistic baitfish profile
  • Good mid-depth dive range
  • Suspending presentation is versatile

Cons

  • Discontinued and may be hard to replace
  • Treble hooks and bill can snag cover
  • Box has a small crack
