Nice one


I would rather be tried by 12, than carried by 6.

Me either - I hooked a small one on Smith lake with it about a week ago one evening but it came off on the way back to the boat and that's it. I've got the 90 white and char. one.

The stop and go has been the most productive for me

I've tried slow-stead, faster-steady, and stop-go. The slow steady has worked best but all 3 have caught fish. If I see some good looking cover I'll work a little twitch or pause or something in there, and that seems to be productive.

how are yall fishing it?

So far I've kept a slow steady retrieve bc if I speed up any the prop on it don't turn good and it turns up on it's side. I've tried to doing it like a pop r a few times and jerking it but like I said I haven't tried doing that much - to keep it from turning do u try a small swivel or a loop knot?? I've tied a regular polymer knot on it every time so far

I've got one but it's hard to put down the gun fish when they are hitting top.

I finally got one to hit the plopper early Saturday on Holt, unfortunately it probably only weighed 12oz....

This is why I don't like the 90, the small one. I have to wind it slow to get the plop-plop-plop sound and if anything happens - wave, line gets underwater, speed up - it stops working correctly. I've retrieved it by burning, going fast, moderate, slow enough to plop and even slower.

I'm not sold on the 90 yet, but won't give up. But the 130, I love. Throw, wind it fast and the eat it.

I've not caught any on the 130 but have done well with the 90. The 90 is a little tricky on the start of the retrieve.
