Location: Ft. Wayne Indiana | These baits are great, use them from 40 degrees in the spring to freeze up in the fall.
Great bait to work over weeds, over rocks, or down a break line.
Use a phantom all season long. |

| Great glide baits that are easy to work, or if you want to put a little more effort into them, they can move and dance like mad!  |

Location: syracuse indiana | i use them al year round. i kinda use them differently than most people. and hard to explain. kinda a jerk /jerk sweep . and a twitch and a pause.. it drives them wild. i also collect them i have more phantoms than one should have.. both 7 1/2 and 6 inchers and they work great all season long like mike said....bill |

| phantoms are my 'go-to' gliders- built like a tank, great finishes, and actions that are definitely musky approved. i use the large more than the small, but both are great baits.

ps- read the post "the one that haunts you" about big muskies that got away. notice what lure is mentioned there multiple times...

Location: Oregon | I would agree with the above comments, of all the commercial baits I have experimented with I liked the action of the Phantom the best...very stable bait.

Location: Germantown, WI | i love this bait! it is one of my confidence lures and as someone stated above, very easy to use. i work mine slower than most people might, w/ long pauses. You should try one if you haven't already |

| Phantom's are awesome. I took 4th place in a tourney last spring out of 165 people on a phantom. Very versatile, and you can catch fish on them all year long!!

Location: Neenah, WI | Phantoms Rock. The 61/2 inch is a awesome spring and summer to early fall then i switch to the big one!!!!
You can get the small one to do al kinds of erratic stuff plus you can get it to glide really sweet!! Great change-up bait

| I have a couple and have moved fish on them.
No connections - Still a good bait.
I feel that for my style of fishing they fish to slow. They are good enough to see the water every trip, but I have yet to find their nitch. I have tried them as spot on spot baits, negative weather. Nada
I fish mostly shallow green lakes with tons of weeds.
My 2 cents |

| One of my top five baits. Perch and walleye colors, six and nine inch models have put fish in the boat. Great count down bait as well. |
