Location: Grand Rapids, MI | Really?! Mine run perfectly. I thought it was one of the easiest gliders to use. Short taps with the rod. But you HAVE to feed it a little line. Your taps should start with the slightest play in the line. If it does happen to be a bad one, Roger will take care of you. He stands behind his stuff 100%. |

| Yep, roger is great. I have no experience with that particular glider, but my experience with h20 tackle has been all positive. |

| Tap it. Don't pull it. |

| Why didn't/don't you just ask Roger about it? |

Location: oswego, il | These baits have a really cool shimmy/belly roll when they glide. Gliders don't take pulls to make work, wrist snaps/taps work best. |

Location: syracuse indiana | a mixture of rod taps with a pulsating reel. is all you need with most gliders. and what i ment by pulsating reel is slow on the low side then a little faster on the high side.. i wrote a article for the drifter tackle hellhound for last months monthly website artice.. check it out if you want....bill

Location: Freedom, WI | It is not intended to be a perfect walk the dog bait (the floating Nitro is more like that), it can be if you use light taps. It has an odd stagger to it most of the time. Also if your rod does not have a limber tip it could make a difference. If you give me a call I will try and figure out the issue even if you bought them used. If you look on my website in the 2010 photo gallery there is a fellow from New York that boated a 57" on a Nitro. |
