Has anyone ever used these? I have had very good success with the gray/white & gray/black colors. They seem to work especially well in the early spring around boathouses. The design allows them to swim away from me and up under the overhangs provided by boathouses.

They are very good for fish on the Bed even if they pick up the tail end of it you can still hook'em up. They do also work well around docks. I haven't seen any for sale in a while , where can you get them now?

Check at Bass Pro Shops. I think they may still sell them. If they don't you will just have to find something else that catches your eye (and also catches fish). Ask around, somebody may have bought some and may want to get rid of them. You have to cast them to the edge of an overhang and let them "fly" up underneath it. Then you raise your rod up and drop it back down and let it fly away again. Each time you do this it goes a little deeper until eventually the lure is hanging straight down. You should get at least 3-5 raises on your rod before you ever have to use your reel. As usual be ready for a bite or feeling the lure stop or move off in another direction.

I was given some flying lures when they first came out. They did work for rainbow and brown trout in Flaming Gorge reservoir in Wyoming but I've not used them since. Kinda forgot about them.......hummmmm, where are those flying lures.
