Subject: Re: new rubber swimbait




I believe this is the problem...

From the "Muskie Expo" thread under the General Discussion section:

kyle@bigwoodmuskylur - "The big question that I keep getting emails about is if we will have the new Magnum 12" Shadzilla at the show. I'm about 95% sure at this point that at least a limited supply of these will make their way to the MN Expo! These baits will not be available on our website or anywhere else for that matter, for a few more months."

Here's the link, http://muskie.outdoorsfirst.com/board/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=72...

I don't think that's the problem Kyle is talking about the mag shadzillias in that post not the Call Girl by Guide Dog Tackle. I'm looking for the bait form Guide Dog.

My fault. I thought everyone was talking about the Shadzillas.

I wouldn't think of it as a swimbait per se, but I couldn't think of anything better to call it. There's definitely a grey area when classifying plastics. I wouldn't consider a Bull Dawg to be a swimbait, but lots of people do.

Ya know, I would consider a bull dawg a jerk bait for sure based on the way that most of us fish them... but strangely enough, the majority of fish that I have caught on them, is while using them in a swim bait fashion. Usually moving pretty slow in the spring and fall... not my favortie summer bait, unless it is night!

I'm interested in trolling one of these rubber "swimbaits" in-place of the skirt with double 10/12/13s. Anyone else doing this, or know of a bait that wouldn't constantly spin at 3-4 MPH?

I'd call it a hunk of rubber with a couple of tails. It's closer to twin tail grub than a swimbait. It's not shaped like a fish and them curly tails don't move like a fish. I'm not bashing the bait either it probably will catch fish like other similiar baits.

would like to get my hands on a few but the web site wont let you do anything. Any advice.


What's wrong with our website? I'm pretty proud of it! Actually, what you guys are seeing is something that my partner Steve tried to design. He got it in his head that he was a web designer and after months of hard work, that site is the fruit of his labor. If anyone would like to compliment him on his obvious talent (or hire him for your own site design) you can email him at [email protected].

Our actual site is almost done, we're going to be testing it this Wednesday night and assuming all goes well and there's not much tweaking to be done, it'll be live in a few weeks tops. Same address as the mess of a site that's there now, the new one will simply replace the high quality one that exists now.

In the meantime anyone that wants to discuss our stuff can p/m me here or email me at the address shown in a post by Kodiak near the top of page 2. I'd post it again myself but I don't want this post to be viewed as "product promotion", that's really not my intent. And PLEASE feel free to email my partner too, he still thinks his original site design is pretty good!

I trolled the prototype of the new Magnum Shadzilla last season at 5 mph with no hint of turning over at all.

Here is some underwater footage of the new 12" Magnum Shadzilla including some live action fish being caught.
