| Just getting everyone's opinion on their favorite walk-the-dog. I really like the Salmo Maas Marauder. I've fished a few others, but always go back to the Salmo. I've also been thinking about picking up a Water Moccasin. They seem a little lighter weight than the One Eye Willy. |

I lke Docs and have caught fish on them. The only downside to a Doc is that they are light and can get blown clear out of the water by the fish. With all that being said I throw a Doc pretty often and have added longer and heavier hooks to mine.
I also like Wabulls, Weagles and the Salmo Marauder. |

Location: Sycamore, IL | I throw jackpots ALOT and have decent luck but miss a few fish. I also have a 8"weagle which I don't throw alot because of the weight/ size. What is a WTD bait that is heavier than a jackpot, but lighter that a weagle? I was thinking the regular fishstick might be the ticket but, haven't seen one in person.
Thanks |

Location: Elk River, Minnesota | I will take an 8" weagle please....either stink pickle or cash...
I have found there is a little variance in the buoyancy of the baits, to which finding the right balance with weight can make all the difference in the "swoosh" of the lure. I have two that I own, and My stink pickle is a tough more buoyant than my cash...
They both have a good swoosh, though... It's all in the swoosh!!

It is missing the third hook near thea head. You can of course modify it and add that hook which makes it a much better bait. Without it the hook-ups are worse. To me it is much harder to work and get it to do what you want when you want. I like the 'lil doc more than the regular doc. |

Fish Stick HD. You can thank me later! Note though that it is about the same size as the weagle, but lighter. I have not thrown the reg. size fish stick so I cannot tell you to use that. I have found no need to go smaller that the HD. |

Location: Red Wing, Minnesota | Try the Havana Jack then. It's the same bait & manufacturer but in a larger version. Easy to work bait.
