I bought one the other day, but it does not seem to have a lot of action in the water. It seems a bit dead compared to other rubber offerings. Maybe it needs deep, fast water, but I don't enough faith in it to buy any more...

thats what makes the lure work.... iv tried giving it action like a sluggo, and will never get a tap.... but just a slow retrieve with absolutely no action catches fish

I've had the most luck fishing them like a jerk bait, just a little twitch and let it drop then repeat. Hits always come on the drop, that wedge shaped head gives the tail a nice little side-to-side wiggle as it drops, fish can't resist. I'll have to give the slow steady retrieve a try though seeing how it's working for some.

I was in a well known tackle shop when some of the staff came back from a bit of casting. What was on the end of their rods...these very Ronz. That was enough proof to me.

You can use any jig head with them. I use a 1.5oz owner jig head with a 10'' black tail in the sand. In the canal I use a standard black 4oz head with them as well. My dog loves the way they smell too.

I do like the bevel shaped head on the sand but have a hard time with them in the canal.
