I like 'em, Eddy, because they are so versatile. You can pull them down two or three or four times to get them as deep as you want, then keep it there with a steady retrieve (brief pauses and twitches help too), or you can slow your retrieve and let them swim back to the surface. You can give them a short tug and move them along just subsurface. Their other advantage over a Danny is that they work better in rough water. Their head stays down and you can pull them through a wave. They are also more stable with a faster retrieve, though you can't work them on top as slowly as a Danny. The fish I've posted so far are only half the weight of the one I dropped, but I'm hopeful I can fix that in a week or so.
