Hey guys

Wondering if anyone out there uses headlocks as a twitch bait? I'm not much of a troller (occasionally I'll drag a lure around on familiar structure). anyway, I love ripping big games as twitch baits and figure a headlock might be a good one to twitch too. I'd like to hear if anyone has tried

I would think it would be hard to twitch effectively being so buoyant.

Tried it, was very buoyant as said, and didn't get much action out of the bait. The kickout isn't there and the lip is so big you'd need a heavy rod to handle it for long.
