Anyone ever try them? A buddy at work knows the guy that makes them so he gave me some to test out and I'm all about testing out the free stuff fish

Awesome. I usually use worms fishing for the Sunfish however I use plenty of jigs on the Crappie! hooked Looking forward to reading how you do using em. cheers



Side Note: When I do use artificial on the Sunfish I usually use the Berkley Products but I am always open to new baits that have good results by other anglers. thumb

I'm about the same when it comes to gills. Worms, crickets and wax worms(hard to find in TX). I usually keep 1 pole with a jig handy for when the slip bobber or bottom methods are slow.

Heading to Athens tomorrow so hopefully I will have a report on how they did...

Better pictures. I'm thinking the gills will see them as crickets.

Nice baits. Looks like they would do pretty good on Crappie and Bass also. Let us know the results after you use em.

Well I had some good results with the jigs. I first tied on the 1/80oz blue jig to try to get some gills. I got a few nice sized ones on it right away. When the bite slowed I switched back to the crickets as to try to put them in the cooler faster.
One of the gills.

After I had enough gills for dinner I switched up to the 1/16oz to try to catch some crappies around the docks. 1st cast and I get something big on. About 30 seconds after it hit a big bass jumps and spits it out. bang

About 5 minutes later and bam another big hit but this time it heads right to the bottom and tosses the hook leaving 5lbs of weeds on the line as a parting gift. bang

Well it turns out the the 3rd hit was the one that counted...I didn't put the tape on him but I'm guessing right about 20" and 4lbs. He went back in the lake right after the glamour shot...
