Just got back from taken 'em for a swim. Ended up switching out the 2/0 hooks for 3/0. Pull'em slow and they create a nice V-wake right on the surface. Pull'em harder and they dig down about 6-8 feet with a sweet side to side tail waggle.

TDF,

Nice lookin pikies, I like where you weighted 'em, thats where I get my best results on a straight pikie..

you musta went to the parker or the Mac... most of the ponds are iced up now..... I know all my test ponds are iced over....Even the Ipswich was iced over enough to thwart my efforts yesterday, I'll have to take some to the coast Saturday morning..

I work in Salem so I take a ride over to the Public Pier in Beverly to test usually. Great place to get a good idea how deep they go too.
