6.25oz??

Are they realy that heavy??? I picked up a few at the show and they didn't feel that heavy. One of the Vendors told me they were 4.5oz... Anyone weigh one yet??

FYI.... MikeCC has them for the cheapest price i've seen so far.

It's important to support our sponsors, but you got to love it when they also have the best price...

I picked up a few at Mike's this morning, and he is by far the cheapest . I weighed them when I got home and they weighed 6.2-6.3 ozs. I think these will be great come herring season for those preferring not to mess with live bait. I am not going to fish live this season but am going to try these and my homemade pikies and swimmas.

Thumbs up Storm's WILDEYE lures

I used those this past fall, and the stripers couldn't get enough of them. This year's model has a segmented tail section that looks deadly. The only downside is the price. The regular WILDEYE lures range from $3.00 - $5.00 per pack, while the segmented body styles are sold for over $4.00 apiece.
I can't wait to try one of them this year.

I'll see if I can get down next week, would like to see your cave. Can't let my wife see it though or she will be afraid of the ideas running through my squash...

I guess you could use them either place. I am going to use them in the Ditch and the beach.

You would have to kind of lob it, which in the ditch isn't a problem. The current will do the rest. I have a 126MH that could cast it and a couple of lami 3M glass rods that could handle it casting.
