If you guys had to pick between a 10" WA WEAGLE (blk.) or a regular Weagle(tangerine dream) Which one would it be? I fish mostly Rivers!

Thank You...Brian

I have never used a 10" Weagle. But the 8" and Baby Weagles works well in the current. You might want to think about upgrading that Zebco 202.

I find the 10 incher is actually easier to work the the 8 incher. I'd go with the big one, due to the fact you will be using it in current a lot. It pushes more water too.

What about the tail? Does it make a difference? Compared to a regular! Yea Clarke, I better bust out the TE I guess...LOL

The 10" Weagle works easier side to side, but is not as easy to really rock along. I like both, but the standard Weagle is my favorite.

I just picked one up, but haven't used it much. Are single strand leaders a must with this bait? I expect to give it plenty of work on Big Chip next week.

I prefer 174# solid wire leaders for the Weagle. I do know a lot of guys even use flouro, so with a little practice you can probably use any leader you prefer.

i dont think the leader matters as much on the weagle as it does on other wtd baits i use flouro just because its what is always on my rod and it works just fine
