Location: Lake "y" cause lake"x" got over fished | Yes, hands down best swim bait I own.
My buddy and I went out last year for the first time with them. We were fishing a flat on one of his favorite lakes. We were burning the sexy shad and the midnight sucker colors. Without warning a 54" smoked the sexy shad my buddy was throwing no more then 10 seconds into the cast. He boated a 46"and 54" that day. I boated a 42". all on the zillas. IMO they have one of the best, if not the best swim bait action of any lure out there. Very versatile bait. BUY ONE! I will be picking up the new 12" mag-zilla at the expo this year. Absolutely fantastic bait. great for trolling at high speeds and they do not roll at all

Location: Blaine, MN | Was fishing Hennepin Island last fall, 4 of the 5 boats I encountered throughout the day had at least 1 angler throwing them. I have a few in my tackle box, and there is definitely a time and a place for them... I got mine from Kyle at Big Wood... great to do business with. |

| Glad to see you guys having luck with them. I am by no means knocking on them as I own two of them. Just to prove a point, I have thrown them a lot and have raised fish but have never caught anything on it. It is just like any other of the hundreds of baits out there sometimes they eat them sometimes they don't.

Location: VA | Great Swim bait. Definitely the best soft plastic type in my box. Caught a pile of fish on them last year. I had better hooking percentage with 6/0 Mustads 3551 6/0 rather than the VMC 9626 5/0 that they come with. Lots of missed strike before I switched hooks. Can't wait to get my hands on the magnum. |

| Nate's crankbait and the later imposter are totally different baits than the Shadzilla which is a true, non-hard plastic swimbait. |
