Glidepride Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) Hello SU, Ive been taking interest in the Klash 9 recently, due to the bait being more readily available. Man it took a while! But now that I have a few in my arsenal its time to figure the bait out. There seams to be a lot of videos showing the different lips, tails and modes. I can see what I think will work but I thought I might reach out to the SU family to see what the most productive setup is. Im very curious what everyone is throwing. Please explain what lip, tail, mode, custom paint, rod, reel, line, hooks and terminal tackle, you're catching them on. Pictures would be very much appreciated. As always thank you for your time SU Glidepride Edited January 6, 2022 by Glidepride After thought Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BayAreaAngler Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 Depends where you’re fishing. I usually fish it around structure lip out mode B and walk the dog as close as I can to cover. Fishing a lil deeper I put in the stock lip and put the tail in mode A. Crank it down a lil then start the dead walk motion Glidepride 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea for the most part stock parts. I haven’t had issues with hooks or anything so far but this is my first year throwing DRTs. Also I fish the TK more than K9, so I don’t have many pics yet. This will be my year though Glidepride 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loudsplashbassn_ Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 Haven't fished my K9 much but watched a Ton Of the JDM Videos and Mode B seems to be the most used Mode . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevinzap Posted January 6, 2022 Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 Trying not to complicate things here, but DRT’s new post has me intrigued. The “Glide9” tune looks crazy with the wire, weights etc. Amazing how meticulous and crafty they are overseas. Maybe somebody can try to translate it so we can try to implement it? But, to answer the question my most successful mode has definitely been the Glide mode B, tail down, no lip. I have had some decent fish on the YTMK mode (roll lip, v tail) Firebaiter and Glidepride 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id have to agree from what Ive seen so far. With so many options of lips Im very curious about the joker wide lip getting the bait down to 9' or even the roll lip. Im sure the SU folks have some results with these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve fished all 3 of the K9 Lips and my favorite is either the roll lip or the regular stock lip. The roll lip has a tighter wiggle/more body roll while the stock lip has a more traditional wide wobbling crankbait style action. The wide lip however is very tiresome to fish and the action is an exaggerated wide wobble. In my experience, it’s too tiresome for it to be practical for me because of the amount of water it pushes, it puts a lot of strain on your wrist when your cranking it.

That's a very interesting point. Just like a deep diver requiring a low gear ratio reel, the wide lip would require a totally diffent setup. The roll lips subtle side to side wobble looks like a bass catcher. While many bass love a lot of action the big girls always seem to go for the slow easy Target.
