My opinion? Fisherman catcher. Very detailed beautiful patterns, but the actual build just isn't anything special. Im sure it catches fish, if you fish it enough under the right conditions, but that goes with any bait. Just another hype bait, thats my opinion.

I'm ganna have to disagree with you the paint jobs look good but doesnt hold up at all. But I have yet to see a floating glide bait the dives 3ft on the retrieve and would be very ez to make suspend fished mine for a while I think it fishes better that a new 175.

This is definitely a different style bait. I have always wondered if you placed the line tie above the nose if a glide would dive... Well, I guess it works. This bait floats but dives down about 3-4' has a good glide and flash. It rises very slowly, it would not take much to make it suspend or dive deeper. If the paint holds out it should be a good bait

Bingo! This is my only hesitation in purchasing one.

 

I'm considering getting one and applying a layer of clear coat to it myself but I'm worried about how that will affect the action. Does anyone have any insight on what that might do? I'm assuming it'll make it heavier which is good for me anyway.

If you are near Richmond hit me up and you can borrow mine and see if you like it. I wouldn't of bought one had I fished it first (like a lot of the baits I own) but I haven't given up on it yet.
