I remember using that THING on the Chattahoochee River north of Atlanta as far back as 1966. It was murder on the Brim and Shellcrackers up there. This was when the only launch ramp was at the old Rainbow Sand Company on Azalea Dr. and there none of those fancy homes up there. No complicated procedure, just move along and cast at the banks...the fish did the rest.
It was a KILLER of a lure
