Huge disappointmentThe action on these is perfect but they have a huge flaw that makes them useless. The paper thin hook hangers break on any fish over 4lb! I should've listened to the reviews saying this exact thing. Bucca should be ashamed to have his name behind this!
One of favorite baits!Been fishing glide baits and big swimbaits for about a year. This bait is awesome, have caught lots of nice bass on it. Great for flipping docks and twitching like a dying shad. Sinks relatively slow but not too slow. Swims awesome and glides awesome.
Bought a second one and the tail was sticking. Mike sent me a video on how to clean the burr off of the hinge. It worked but definitely shouldn't have to do that on a $40 bait. Never the less it's still a great bait.
Awesome but terribleThe bait absolutely gets bites and has drawing power. The action was fantastic. BUT the durability is garbage. Only got to run mine for a few hours before it broke on one side of the tail and now it's worthless. I should have known. Catch-co. Will not buy again unless Mike finds a better manufacturer. The design and action was 10/10. Build 1/10.
JunkTied the trick shad on at the house. Got to the lake to pull out the rod with the trick shad on it and the back hook swivel breaks in half. Never even got the lure in the water.
Didn't last 1 hourWas really excited to throw new trick shad. Used in open water for less than an hour the front treble hook gone(rod that holds it in vanished) and the the joint is junk too sticking not allowing tail to freely kick. Extremely disappointed. Before it broke action was great but I basically wasted $40.
It gets ChokedSimply a great bait, design, components and action make for an excellent choice for a " Notnbreaking the bank " kind of glide bait! Fish react very well as the baitnis very responsive to rod twitched or reel bumps! Higly recommend!!
Good cover glideIt works great, you cant walk it in place but it chops pretty well. It has a little bit of a faster sink rate but a little floating board can make it suspend. I would swap hooks, there not the sharpest but they are heavy duty. Overall a great cover glide and you can probably throw it on a MH or even a flipping rod if you need to.
Nice shad cover glideLive this glide, it works well, cant walk it in place but that's fine it still walks pretty good. I would replace hooks, they aren't the sharpest but works great, super lightweight, it sinks a little faster than a slow sink but if you put on a small strip of floating board you can make it suspend. It is very hard to keep the bass off this glide.
AmazingI picked up one of these and man do they look good, this bait is more of a chopping glide and it looks amazing you can still slow it down and make it do the 180 and man does it get crushed.
Awesome baitPicked one of these up at a local shop and took it to the power plant smallmouth river I fish. This is by a mile the easiest glide I’ve ever thrown. You can get effectively chop the bait or fish it fast, but you can also slow it down and do surprisingly wide glides. A lot of shad baits are kinda herky jerky when you slow them down but this has the smooth natural turns you see with a big trout shaped bait. Wish they made these in 8” so I could use them for musky.
