I know they have a great reputation -- wondering how they hold up against rocks? Also, how deep do they run on a medium speed twitching retrieve? Thanks guys.

Hold up fine for me, but I don't hit many rocks here in Madison like you would in Canada.
Depths for the 9" twitching at normal pace with rod down you can get 4-5 feet down.
Have caught some nice fish up to 48" twitching them.
Good Luck,

fish will eat them banging rocks, but you will loose some lips doing it, if you ask they will probably send you some relacements

I bet they hold up better than Buchers raiders I swear I hit leaves with a shallow raider and the lip broke! i used to love them until they started breaking after a couple hrs of fishing brand new ones!

really not a good idea to use them around rock,their lips break easily when they contact rock.balsa is a pretty light wood so they cant make them with a thicker lips because they will lose a big part of their action.
