I also cut my tubes in half, then use a floater rig set for shallow water, produces pretty good and the hook set is consistant

If catchin fish try same setup with weenies close to it mite be surprised

I use to use cheese dogs, did pretty good with them

get some big marvs no need for furry thang or tubes stays on the treble hook and work great for channels and blues, secrect 7 is [censored] its good for your son or daughter to have fun catch and releasing dinks all day.

where do u get this big marvs at is sure shot any good and is all am going to get is dinks has any body caught decent fish what i would call decent anything under 8-10 lbs eating size with secret 7 bait

My biggest on 7 is 5.5 pounds. I am a marv's dealer, love it. I am a secret 7 dealer. Love it. I've caught just as many dinks with marvs as i have with Secret 7. Caught just as many eaters with Secret 7 as i have big marvs. Both good baits.

can u use this bait in a river or would u prefer to use just in a
lak, an how would u fish this bait

In the river i only use secret 7. The dip tube allows for a slow release down stream. In the lake i use Marvs and Secret 7 with the Furry Thang. I fish them on bottom unless its in a heavily wooded area then i do it under bobber.

should i chum the spots i am going to be fishing or should i just fish the secret 7 with out chumming

Up to you. I personally don't chum with dip and punch baits because of the release. They self chum. When that bait hits the water a small explosion of goodness is created.

WE CATCH ALOT OF BLUES USING SECRET 7,I STILL HAVE YET TO CATCH MANY BLUES WITH ANY OTHER PREPARED BAIT,NOT SAYING THEY WONT,THEY JUST HAVENT FOR ME...IN THE BASS PRO SHOP PREPARED BAIT TOURNAMENT LAST YEAR, WE WERE THE ONLY TEAMS TO BRING IN 5 FISH STRINGERS OF BLUES AND TOOK 1ST AND 2ND...SECRET 7 WORKS FOR US...

I have used sure shot , secret 7 and DKs, all produce about the same, get dinks with them all, only way to stay away from them is use cut bait, shad prefered.

I haven't tried s7 yet but I use prepared bait quite a bit and will try it. My opinion is that they catch more fish under 5 lbs than cut shad. That is what I do the majority of my fishing for. They also reduce the gar problem. Most of the larger fish I have caught have been on live bait, usually perch. If you are fishing for eaters, I would use the stink bait. If you are catching dinks, that is what is there. Try another place.
