Anyone else have one of these 10.25" / 6oz. baits? 

I found one in a bargain bin at our local Fleet Farm and was intrigued.  The paintjob caught my eye and it states on the packaging that it only dives 0' - 2'.  Since I got my new trolling set-up, I've been on the lookout for larger, shallow-running crankbaits and this seems to fit the bill.  It's got a pretty good size profile to it.  There is also an internal chamber with rattles. 

I've not seen much ever mentioned on the forum about it and quite honestly, never even heard of the bait until I saw it today.  The one I got is called "Prism Shad".  Nice, bright orange belly with a unique blue-gray back that tapers off into a weird sorta holo-silver pattern. 

NOTE:  This is NOT the new Giant Flatstick also made by Storm.

Can be a great bait, troll it fast when cisco's/tullibees/whitefish are busting the surface of the lake and hold on. They don't like even the lightest chop much and sharp corners don't work well either, unless you want to pull a wallowing topwater for a little bit. But in the right place at the right time these can be awesome.

I think they have a great action. I've grilled and also castes these they are a little heavy but work real nice.
