Comments: I think this is one of the best current glides on the market and at this price point its a great bait. The bait swims well on a straight retrieve, can be chopped, and the sneaky does glide fairly wide. I think this is the best mass produced striper glide for current for sure. The problems as others have mentioned are durability, the paint gets beat up quickly by the hooks, and I have yet to get one of these baits that comes with the stated 4x strong hooks.

Comments: don't buy this, I wish I could return it and get an s-waver. I thought it would be a delta striper killer. The nose comes up, it doesn't swim well. I will take the hooks off and hang it from my rearview or toy for the kids. tried suspend strips on different parts of the bait.

Comments: I have owned many sneaky petes, although they break easily they're worth the money and are very cheap for their lure class anyways. Their swim in current is unmatched and they catch monster striped bass(I broke my pb twice in one day on a sneaky), plus you can work them in so many different ways. You can straight retrieve them for a tight glide, chop them, or glide them wide with soft pumps. The rotating hook hanger is a life saver too, I don't understand why other companies don't include them in big baits like the slide swimmer or explorer. The papa however is a different story, I can't seem to get it to glide at all like a normal big bait, not sure if it's defective or if I can't nail a cadence down, but it still gets bit on the straight retrieve which is even more odd to me. If the papa was more durable I would buy many more, but at its price point its worth spending a bit more for an explorer or slide swimmer.

Comments: Awesome bait. Caught an 8lb largemouth and my PB on one in California, 4+ lb smallmouth on one on the east coast. Musky eat them and stripers too of course. The stock hooks are junk which isn't unusual. Replace your split rings and hooks. Rotating hook hangars work great, never had one deform unless I stepped on it or crushed it in a way that doesn't involve fish. They do crack if you repeatedly bomb them onto rocks or docks so don't do that.

Comments: The Sneaky Pete in hitch color came with red eyes and a rusty hook. Not a high quality glidebait.

Comments: This has very quickly become my favorite glidebait, it snaps side to side but it can also be fished slow for a wide "S" shaped swim. Either way this bait just flat out works. Would recommend.

Comments: This lure catch big fish, but after 2 monster dds it had a crack on the belly so its not durable at all, thats why I switch back to s waver.

Comments: Good lure, catches fish for sure. Very nice action on the swim. Colors are nice. Two weak spots to keep an eye on are the hooks and the rotating hook hangers. Stock hook are definitely not 4x hooks. Had to change out the hooks after losing a couple large fish. The rotating hook hangers are a great idea but will bend on fish. Both my hangers are bent after a couple of fish. Overall a good lure.

Comments: Nice glide bait, however not durable at all. Using Ayu color, paint chipped off within two weeks (after two fish). It also cracked which allowed water to enter cavities. No reply from company with email or phone.

Comments: Very easy to use glide bait. Big action just from reeling the bait alone. Big S turns. Great for the price.
From: james: florida 1/21/19
Comments: If you like S-Wavers these are even better. Looks great on any retrieve and sits upright on bottom
From: Ryan: Mississippi 1/13/19
Comments: Baddest glide bait on the market! The performance is unreal. Fast, slow, twitching, whatever you do this bait stays upright and looks realistic. I highly recommend this bait.
