Location: Medford, WI		I don't use tail-rotatin/prop baits a whole lot; but when I do, I'm either using a Rumbler or a Pacemaker. I think the Rumbler has a deeper "plop" to it than most prop-baits. Hooking percentage seems to be really good as well. You can run it as fast as you want or very slow as well. Overall, a good bait to have.

It has a unique sound to it, and the tail can be tuned a lot. It's a great bait. Oh and I like the sticker on your tacklebox

Location: Smith Creek		I didn't have any luck with mine, either. Tail wouldn't spin when it started, I had to rip it to keep it going and then keep burning it to keep it spinning. Maybe I need to tune the blades?

Location: Twin Cities		Because that eye really does a lot on a topwater prop bait...<rolls eyes> lol!

I've got two of them that have been pitched for 2 seasons, bunch of fish! Still work great, I like the deeper plop plop plop they have.

I've read in some of the older posts on here that when they first came out the rumbler had some quality control issues so you probably just got a bad one.
