Just curious if anyone has had any luck on these baits? Do they have a good action? Thanks.

I personally do not own one but they seem to look a little bit akward to me. Maybe it's the length and long sections, who knows.

Their not bad for the price. Friend of mine caught a 45 right out of the package with one last year. Their like any other dub10, only the flashabou is a little more tinsely, kind of like inhalers. I see nothing wrong with them, plus their blades are a little lighter than some, so they ride a little higher in the water column.

Sam, I think he meant the Bigfoot crankbaits. I bought a bigfoot shallow raider but haven't thrown it yet. Probably will this week sometime though.

I don't own one. The only thing I've ever heard about them was a lot of instances where they take on water.

I've got one of the shallowraider bigfoots. Only dipped it in the water to see the action. Real wide side to side action on it. I'll probably try trolling it in the fall.

I bought a couple of them about a month ago. Then, I thought about ordering a couple of other lures. I had a question concerning one of the lures I was going to order. I tried contacting them via email, then by phone. No luck......So, I decided NOT to order from someone I could not contact. I'm not saying there is a problem, I just didn't feel comfortable in placing another order.

However, my order was just fine and good prices.

Yup. ROI is dumping all thier Bucher stuff as he is going with a new company, i doubt they would put a lot of time and energy into customer service right now. But you can't beat the price, i just wish they had some topraiders left. As for the bigfoot, gave it a try this morning. All i can say is at least the pesky smallies and pike stayed away.
