| Does anyone have any background on the various revisions of the Bucher shallow raiders? I have some that have a very deep heavy rattle, and have what look like flat stamped hook hangers compared to the standard models that have wire hook hangers. The heavy rattled stamped hook version is also about 20% heavier vrs the "standard" model. |

| Andy when did you get these baits ? Can you get a picture up. I’ve some Shallow Raiders dating back 25 years and some in between but never seen anything resembling what you describe. Silly question but are they definitely Shallow Raiders ?
The prototype Shallow Raider was cylindrical much like a Depth Raider, if you have one of those !!! |

| I have a Chinese copy of the 10” Jake, pretty much an exact copy too apart from the hangers which are of a flat profile too.
Unless someone comes up with something concrete I’d say it’s a copy. Does it have the words Buchertail & Shallow Raider on it ?
