To those who are wondering what we are talking about, here is his website. http://www.bullshad.com/He also has a Bull Bluegill pattern now, too. Mike is a stand up guy and knows what he is talking about. His baits are very good and catch a lot of fish, too bad the USA MADE baits are not as cheap as others, but they DO WORK WELL!!!!!!!!! Yes, I am a friend of his, but so sue me. Hope this helps. Tight lines, keep safe and good luck. Thad Rains

Mike strives for 1/2' a second (6") on the slow sink and 1' a second (12") on the fast sinking baits. Hope this helps. Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.

Take a look at the Swimbaits page on Oak Ridge Marina's website for a great overview of many of the swimbaits available out there.

I can't justify the cost of baits that high. I was talking to Keith combs once and he mentioned that he doesn't own anything more than 15 dollars.

That's what he said. He pretty much throws exclusively strike king products, and they don't have anything more expensive than their deep divers.
He said he does fine with the cheaper lures, and had no reason to fish the expensive baits.

how are you guys fishing your bullshads? I have the slow sink model (5 inch but I'm going to get the 6 inch soon) and I'm not sure if I should slow roll it, burn it on the surface or just crawl it really slowly along the bottom? I know one thing, the action is amazing!

ksatman76,
I fish mine on a slow roll or regular retrieve. I have fished them faster to get them on top, as well. I do NOT let it set on the bottom, because it looses it action slowly creeping it along the bottom. I try to fish it OVER the cover and only occasionally touch the cover, as I do not want to loose the bait in deep water. Hope this helps. Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.
