It's the flat stick. It's on sale at cabelas right now. I saw an episode where they used it on a small river and it was working pretty well for them. I might pick one up somewhere for the small river I fish |

Location: NorthCentral WI | I had heard of it before and I just saw that episode saturday... That bait looks awesome. The UV finishes they were talking really stood out in that stained water and most impressive I thought was that loud deep rattle. I'm looking forward to getting my hands on one at the Milwaukee show.
Cabela's only has the orange UV finish, I saw a couple other nice patterns on the Storm site that Cabela's does not offer but either way, good deal there. |

Location: Northern Wisconsin | Darrn I thought they were on a small river in Wi, thought I recognized the spots LOL.
I did a search and they look like good trolling baits as well. Some people who have tried them say they have had the best luck with a straight retrieve versus using it as a twitch or pull/pause lure. |

| Gander mountain has alot of them in. I think they were 12.99 reg price. lots of colors too. Gander in Madison,WI I picked one up and then watched the show and saw it on there that night. The rattles are loud. |

| I just picked one up at the Gander Mt in Wausau today. I think they had all the colors there including 4 or 5 of the UV finishes. Looking at the UV finish, it has a flat look to it but is very bright. I remember reading about it that an extra gloss on the outside of the lure detracts from the flash of the colors. Looks pretty sweet anyways, definitely worth a try. |
