This has been my "go to" bait for the last 2 years or so. It is the easiest working glide bait I ever used, you don't even have to move the rod, just reel and stop - reel and stop .....

Use the hellhound over the tops of weeds OR count it down and work it deeper. I like to alternate between a short fast walk the dog type presentation with longer pauses that make the lure glide more out to the side.

I have to say it is a great bait. Easy to work and the fish like it too. As said before, great over the weedtops.

My favoite bait in my box. I had great luck with it on the opener but missed all 4 fish that tried to eat it. They all took it on a long pause but apperantly winter made me a little rusty on the hook set. This bait has a great wiggle when you let it drop right in front of their nose. I'm heading up to 3 lakes for labor day weekend, this bait will be getting good and wet all weekend and hopfully wont look the same on the ride home. I wish they would come out with a larger version, 10" or bigger.Keep throwing it you wont be disappointed.

One retrieve that works pretty well for this bait is actually a pull/reel/pull motion.

Like you would a suick.

These baits have amazing darting/wobble action when you do this....has great reaction strike potential.

Know of a WI fiddy that fell to this type retrieve and I have had sucess with it as well.

Just another way to use a tool.
