Ditto to what BM just said. IMO they are half needlefish, half spook. They can slide thru the water like a needlefish OR the can squirt in with a little a side to side action when twitched a la spook. I have had good results working it slow and steady in calmish conditions. It has an awesome looking wake behind it!! I am afriad if I work if hard a bluefish will bite it in the ass and ruin what is a beautiful finish.

really nice work Bernzy...

Thanks for the comps

Just work them...... fast, slow, twitch em, make em jump and dart.

Like BM says..."the action is pissa on those things ,ya can work them a lot of ways".

Watch what they do and let the fish tell you the rest.
