Phantom Phish Stick. Anyone have any info on this thing? It looks like a Yum money hound, but it sinks.

Kind of the same thing...You walk the dog with them...sort of a soft plastic spook.

I doubt there is a longer casting lure out there! Used to use them for schooling bass on RR because of the reach.

Lol, glad you posted this. I had forgot about them. I used to kill the fish on those things. I actually just went and ordered a couple bags of them after reading this.

I do believe Olsen's Pro Am in Lake Worth still has some of them sitting on the shelf.

I think I got one of these when I was a kid at the fishing/boat show. I got it for free from one of the tank demonstrations. It was bubblegum pepper I believe. I never even used that thing but I kept it in my tackle box for years. So do you use it as a top water or for deep stuff?

You know how schooling bass are always a cast and a half away from you. The phish stick would launch a mile and was killer on Ray Roberts back in the day. Another one of those baits that I wonder why I got away from them. They were ideal for certain conditions and very effective.
