I run headlocks a lot regardless of time of year. I also like giant invaders and 9” shallow raiders. Mattlocks are also up there on my list... Big Jakes and Grandmas too...

Nice, I just bough some SS shads we will see how they work out. Never had any luck on tuff shads maybe I don't use them at the right speeds.

Check out the Slammer line of cranks. The 4" deep shad, 7" deep diver, and the 10" shallow shad are a few of my Favorites.

The Mattlock will wander more at slower speeds than the Headlock.

Gothcya I have both headlock and Matlock haven't had much luck on either on st. Claire. Fox chain and in eagle river area. I troll 3-4 and the headlock just doesn't have good action..maybe I should speed up a bit. I have seen the Le lures paelagic but at $140 expensive. I have believer 8 and 10s. Picked up some 22 shorts, ss shads, hooker shads, we will see what happens this year
