Posts: 40 | Looking for some feedback on anyone who's used them. Am I better off just buying a 6" or do these work a lot better in spring or certain conditions. Thanks | ||

Posts: 61 | The 4in phantom is probably the best multi species lure ever made!! My personal favorite.. However I have only had 2 muskies ever take a look at them. Maybe cuz I throw the six incher or bigger when I am fishing for them. Still, gotta love the phantom!! | ||

Posts: 177 Location: ON | I found it too small for musky, probabaly had the wrong leader setup. Would run better on a heavier bass outfit. | ||

Location: Contrarian Island | personally I like the baby squirko much better in that size range of lure and the baby squirko is a big fish magnet...the 4" phantom is hard to really get to work with musky leaders/rods imo...finicky! | ||

Posts: 5193 | 7`6 medium heavy rod works great with four inch phantoms.I like the phantom better than the small squirko.Both are good baits,don`t use a leader with either bait.0723 | ||
