lol uread any of these posts? i think there good but its alll up to personal reference in the long run. some people catch with them, others dont. i like to rig them and then catch with them cause i feel that i have somehow "created" a lure that will catch fish. u can rig them any way but the best way i think is with some 50lb dacron, 2 6/0 octopus hooks, some zap-a-gap, and a needling wire. should be in business with that setup.

it would be great

if they were made with the new 3x rubber... for durability.

i've always caught more with the red/black color scheme.

But you wouldn't get the same action out of them Raven, the stronger the rubber, the stiffer it is.

trojans should have that printed on the box....


but no, i thought 3x rubber was not only more stretchy but more wiggly...

when i fish sluggo's in fresh water i use an eagle claw lightweight hook and let them swim ever so slowly... or glide and they work like magic..
because they suspend real well and the rate of fall is perfect.

actually the 3x rubbah is more supple than the regular.....and it stretches like you wouldn't believe.

The only "Drawback" (if it is one) is that it is very bouyant
