I am thinking about ordering one of these. I have never used one before. To me it kind of looks like a Suick. What is the best way to use these? What lure would you compare it to? I'm very curious after all the hype. Looks like they are very well made.

Its a dive and rise bait. Tbones, big daddy's, suicks will all accomplish the same thing for less money. Suicks and Big Daddys both work really well but i prefer the Tbone and they are $25 new. Save your money and don't jump into the hype.

It's a good design and nothing like a suick, bobbie, etc. It has a unique action, in the end it's simply another tool.

Dead Head musky tackle makes them. I believe they were also know as Widowmakers at one point also. I have ordered all of my baits on Facebook from him. Great baits that are made well.

Cannot vouch for l the baits but the t-bone has a nice shimmy when you jerk it. I believe the big daddy does as well.
