In! Would love to expand my hard bait arsenal. Its so cool to see the community take care of its own.

Awesome - will definitely make sure I order a couple of those.

I'm fishing out of a Kayak and was using a ROF 5 in 20-30 ft so I definitely noticed that that I was getting blown towards the bait since I was waiting so long for the bait to hit the bottom. I'll also have to work on hitting the same areas from different angles. Thanks

Thanks, I'll try that. I've have a Magdraft and rising son so I'm very familiar with Mend-It

Hi all, I just recently got into swimbaits and need so help with the Hudd 68. Any help you could offer would be appreciated. In two trips I've lost two baits trying to creep/drag it onto the bottom by getting the bait wedged in between rocks. Is there any trick to avoiding this? Several times I've had the wedge tail get caught on the top hook. Am I doing something wrong with my retrieve? Does this just happen sometimes with the bait? Is it possible that the bait is getting hit an folded up in the mouth of a smaller bass? I've had several followers but have yet to get a fish to fully commit. I've tried dead sticking the bait and it seems to turn the fish off and a steady retrieve hasn't worked either. Should a speed up the retrieve once I see the fish or is there some other technique I can use to trigger a bite?
