Any particular favorites you guys have? Is anyone familiar with Killshots? I know they look real good, but how is their action? Anything comparible to a Phantom?

Manta! A lot of guys like the more erratic baits for gliders, but in my own experience fish can't resist the consistent wide glide of the Manta. Pike and big bass love them too.

most all gliders are good in their own way. throwing out two more very good ones,modivators and nitros from h2o tackle.

two...who can have two types of gliders...I have 100 and will still try a new one. Is there anything finer than a T-Boned glider!! Or even just a great glider. I have some from the 70's that still go on boat rides. That was when most of them did not have enough weight in them to really perform. But every once in awhile one would come along...

Hot tail gliders are nice and very reasonable for custom wood bait. I love their wobble on the death pause. Phantoms and mantas also see a lot of time on the rod.

I have one of the killshots. Nearly indestructible plastic, great paint available. But I think the phantom is a much easier to use glider. It's not as easy to get in a rhythm with the killshots. Would also agree with Warlocks, mantas, hellhounds. And definitely agree no such thing as too many gliders.

do a search.. there is a couple older post that talk about them.. i will say they are proven fish catchers.. the action is some where between a hellhound and phantom and are made of wood not plastic like the last post says..

That made me want to check. Lots of top coats on these lures that's for sure. But definitely plastic once you get through it. Very cool colors available right now online.

i know when he first stared to make the killshot they were wood and listed as so on ebay but i noticed after you said your were plastic that it doesn't say that anymore so i emailed him and asked. he said he makes them out of wood,plastic and foam resin know.

No wonder they seem so tough. Should stand up to a lot of punishment
