What type of line do you throw this on? What have you found to be the best way to work it? Picked it up yesterday and excited to throw it tomorrow.

I bet that thing is gona have some h#!!@ action with the jointed body and that long jointed tell. I would go heavy mono simply for the shock resistance. I am betting they are going to hammer that thing.

Fish it on 50 lb. braid with no wind. If the wind is blowing I hate braid and will go to 25# Stren Mono.

You will have to try different sequences of letting the bait sit, moving it forward with light twitches and then walking the bait to see the action from side to side. Many of your strikes will come while sitting and on the first slightest movement. Hopefully the bait will make those sharp turns left and right then let it sit.

Call me a doubter. grin Please let us know how the fish react. I'm sure I would not have the patience to fish it for the first time.

It's a wake bait, keep it on top, reel real slow so it makes a wake. I use liquid glass on the outer edge of the joint so it makes a click when you reel it in. The fish will explode on it when they hit it!!! They are fun bait to fish, catch a couple on it and you will be hooked.... :>)

Are you wanting a confirmation that it's white or asking why it's white?

Somehow I stumbled over some videos of this bait, (probably watching 'what bass eat' videos last week) and all the reviews/demos of the rat were all white rats.
