| Wich one works better? Sometime's I am getting e bit tired after casting doubles all day. So i'm thinking of ordering some showgirls or juniors.
What do you think is the best choice? Or are there better options??

| The junior cowgirl pulls almost as hard as the cowgirl so if your getting tired it will help some but not much. The showgirl is a single bladed smaller bucktail. You should have both because they both can be effective. |

The "double showgirl" is indeed a double 8 colorado, however, the regular showgirl is a single blade.
I use jr. cowgirls when I want the big fish bait/profile with a little less pull. I use the double showgirl when I want speed or a downsized bait.
They are completely different tools and both can be extremely effective. On trip to vermillion last July the fist wanted the double showgirl fished fast. We boated 3 fish on double showgirls alone, including my fathers personal personal best 52.5. This spring in Indiana the fish seemed to respond to the jr. cowgirl. Here is a 51" caught a week ago on the jr. cowgirl.

Location: Twin Cities, MN | I think the Jr cowgirl pulls quite a bit less, or at least it does for me. I have been throwing them quite a bit more than their bigger sisters for that reason. |
