Do they look as good as the regular dawgs? It seems like the plastic is not as soft as the regular dawgs.

Hey Tomyv , it has changed by now but I glanced at this post and saw we had "exactly" the same number of posts at 1013.
Strange coincidence. You play the numbers?

Joel, be careful of your post count if you are saveing that 1000th post for a 50!

C'mon guys. Do you really think the fish can see the slight changes in the mold that were made? Heck, I can barely see 'em on some patterns.

I bought the uptown because of the new pattern combinations. Hopefully they perform as well as the standard dawg. I'll be trying 'em out this weekend - weather permitting.

I was just wondering if the harder plastic made a difference in the action. I could care less what they made them from. They eat it all. Sounds like they look good in the water. I love the colors, so I guess I need to invest.

The "Old" tail has returned with the thicker, weighted bit at the end

My feeling that the changes to the plastic, and how the tail has been formed with the new plastic
injected Bulldawgs definitely are noticeable. The older style bulldawgs have a more lively and subtle action on the tail. You can
really see the difference after ripping the bait at boatside and then pausing it. Usually the tail slithers around, and
moves seductively as the bait free falls. The new bulldawg's coiled tail looks like a slinky springing back
to a coil on the pause. Not quite as fluid, and definitely not like the old style bulldawgs. I just know that
the old ones worked very well, and I'll be a buying the uptown dawgs once I cash all my old dawgs.
There's a saying that goes such as this: "Don't fix what isn't broke."

catch ya later,
Krappie
