| How do you get your Super D's to not turn over? If I speed up or rip them they flip right on their back. I have 3 that all do the same thing. |

I had the same problem I don't want to waste time trying to make baits run right.I want to fish spend the extra money and buy the good stuff.
I've had this problem with dawgs, medussas, and thunderbeasts, can't tell me they are all cheap considering they aren't. |

I agree! Minor adjustments to the harness is all that it takes. Just like Suicks, it takes minor tuning to get those the way you want them. |

| They r great baits. Just bend them a bit. I have a Cisco super d that has tons of fish under its belt and it is still going strong. |

Location: Land of the Musky | Try adjusting the harness. Funny thing is, the musky don't care 
You can also add just a small egg sinker to the split rings on the two belly hooks on these types of swimbaits.

Location: menasha wi 54952 | The four belly fins are the issue. They do not line up with each other and will cause the bait to flip over. Cut them off with a sharp scissors flush with the body and you will be all set.

Location: SE Wisconsin | If you throw rubber a lot, you know if your bait is running straight or not. If it shoots out to the side on the pull, you need to bend the harness to the left a little - as straight as you can - then pitch it 15' out and work it in to see how it's running. Work with it until you get it right.
If it's tuned and still turning over, it comes down to your retrieve. If your ripping without tightening up to load the tip, it will jerk and inevitably belly roll. Keep up with the slack after every pull by reeling down as you lead into another pull. If you are taught with the bait, go ahead and give it a pull or moderate rip. give it a chance to glide in between pulls, too. So half way or 90 degrees into the pull, pause and lead back into your next pull while reeling down.
I've been throwing rubber primarily over anything else over the last several years by about every rubber bait maker out there, and I've been exclusively throwing Super D's the last three weeks. I can say with experience they work just a good as anything else like them with some bonus elements from my POV. |
