| HappyH, i have a fishstix..because i'm a lure jones...
Rides good in the water...a little lower than jackpot..it's a different type wood, i think a little more dense.
Has 3 hooks..probably my #1 liking of the bait. i dont have enough strikes on it so for sure say it has a better hook up...but it's been a highooker=my happy hooker so far.
You have to T the hooks, the hooks will cut righ t into the bait (paint and wood) if you dont T them. but my first one (that i learned on) runs just fine with the exposed wood..do, i dont have any problems w/ that. finishes become blemished on most musky baits with use, so no big deal...but on the plus side..i mostly throw my one w/ hook groves in it. still runs great.
hhhhmmm fish tix (and donuts)

Location: Yahara River Chain | I told Lee that I want one - in WHITE. But he said he does make then in white. So, I'll hold off till he does.
It is a bit heavier than a jackpot, thus the fish will be less able to blow it out of the way when they strike it. I'm sure others on this board have actually use one and can just you a better account than I. |

| This is a great bait. I found the hook scraping thing the hard way too but it still works. Perhaps the best thing about it is that it is so easy to use and it takes getting run over by a tank to go out of tune. The thing just stays consistent. I have that other bait that is talked about quite a bit, and don't get me wrong, it's a good bait, but my personal preference is for the fishstick. |

| looks like a decent bait, but does not appear to be worth $25 to me |
