| I am very fond of phantoms and hellhounds and can work them well with little taps(getting them to go side to side and up and down). This winter I bought a squirko and tried working it today and had a hard time. I had to give it a very hard jerks downward and fish it slower to get it to dart.(It did look good when I did this) Any input??? |

Location: oswego, il | Squirkos work best with a slack line twitch. Same tap you give a phantom but with a little bit more slack in it to start with. Won't take long to get it once you do that.
The tails are from Action Plastics, you can order them online or from Rollie and Helens. |
