Location: SE Wisconsin | My apologies if there is already discussion on this lure, but the Search function wasn't working.
I see their body shape is similar to the Manta so I assume she has the same movemnet, but I LOVE the paint jobs. I'm planning on ordering at least one for now, but I'd like to hear some commentary on them. Am I slow to jump on the bandwagon with adding to my arsenol, or has this pretty thing flew under the radar until now?

Uncool. I'll have to find out because it says their in stock online. This would be a big bummer - I really like the paint jobs. |

| I've got one like the one in the picture. Waiting to hear from those who have had success, as I have limited time fishing the lure. However, I'm impressed with how it works.....the lure is tuned, no doubt about that....just wondering what others think. |

Location: Oregon | Here is a video that jerkbait.com did of the lure. The video is much more robotic than most would choose to fish the lure but it gives you an idea of how far the bait will glide and how easy it is to make it work.

Location: Illinois | I bought the same bait as the pictures and have had success with it. It certainly gets lots of looks and will get eaten. |

Location: Oregon | Just like any lure there are those that like this bait and those that do not. Pike fisherman in particular like the lure and I have gotten back some pics of some very large pike taken on it. I also have a pic on my web page of a 53" musky taken on it. I get email requests for this lure more than any other bait I sell.

Location: Michigan | Jed's baits are rock solid. He is very maticulous and only releases a bait when it meets his high expectations. And Jeds paint is some of the best out there. I like the x-glide as it works similar to a manta. It is an easy bait to work fast or finesse. You won't be disapointed!

Location: APPLETON, WI | When I clicked on: http://www.bikinibaitcompany.com/TurmoilXPatterns.htm
It advises the lure is "in stock and ready to ship... ORDER NOW."
I'm assuming this isn't exactly the case...? What will be changed on the website to indicate these are truly a go...? |
