30 pound test braided fishing line Optic Orange 8X- No Fade With 3 times the strength of monofilament lines of the same diameter Hercules Super Tough Braided Fishing

For easy weedless rigging, simply slide the hook into dorsal and ventral hook slots

This can be varied with pauses to stimulate lethargic fish

These thin slabs of metal drop into the strike zone like a rock, deliver vibrations frantic enough to jar your fillings loose, and flash like a strobe light to attract bass from their canyon-deep lairs in clear, cold lakes

Shaped from wood and heavily plated, they were packaged in wooden slide-top boxes like this one, as well as two-piece, maroon-colored cardboard versions

Its a solid choice for lipless cranks, spinnerbaits, and anything where feel and rhythm matter

Occasionally Ive use one of their smaller 3DR-X models (which I love for summer smallmouth!)
