Posts: 386 Location: Northern Illinois | Just wondering which method you have more success with overall. I know some answers will be sometimes they want the dive and rise and sometimes they want glide/side-to-side. However, I'd like to know overall what's more successful for you. Maybe I'm not as good at triggering fish with the glide baits, but for me it seems the dive and rise can get fish both more often and when nothing else seems to work. | ||

Posts: 633 Location: Madison, WI | For me hands down side to side but that is probably pure confidence, I can fish a glider all year and feel in the game but to me suicks and bobbies only feel right come fall. | ||

Posts: 646 Location: In a shack in the woods | I have a weighted sucker suick or chart/ black dot on my deck at all times. Too many fish try to hit a side to side and miss. They are much harder to get good hook sets on. I do use a walleye phantom soft tail though when nothing else is going. | ||

Posts: 427 Location: Planet Meltdown | Each has their place but dive and rise baits have a better hook up ratio than side to side. | ||

Posts: 134 | bassin said it... you will def move more fish side to side but as brain sas hooking % is sooooo much better with dive n rise. Sandcat=fish!! | ||

A suick can do both, why choose? | |||

Posts: 791 Location: WI | Both have there place but if I'm working weeds a suick is my go to bait. It's amazing how with a little practice you can get through really thick stuff | ||

Location: Grand Rapids, MI | My best producers for numbers and big fish are: - new growth weeds when you can go over the top = glider - shallow flat where speed is needed = glider - thick weeds = buoyant dive/rise - steep break or weed wall = weighted dive/rise - deep weeds = Bulldawg or Medussa (deep dive/rise jerk bait) - deep weeds = Triple D (deep glider) | ||
