Thanks Shag...Demented just means I'm always experimenting, adapting, and trying to improve....that's my story, if it works or not. lol
Seems to me, that fish can become sensitive to lures, colors, etc, especially if they have been caught a few times. Each year it seems that the Main Crappie color for BIG SLABS will change...this way if they get tight lipped, I can tempt them with a tasty morsel they haven't seen yet.
Walleye like the same colors, but different action at certain times seems to trigger them...Bass also seem to have a memory and switching between a couple different plastics can lead to bites in areas that you covered earlier, sometimes the difference between a regular swimbait's action and the action from something like the flapper, with the same retrieve, will get you bites!

I really like these things, I will be able to run them like swimmers or like the old Dalhberg craw that I loved.....the Blue/Black/Silver glitter, is one of my favorite Largemouth Bass colors in stained water and at night....the Delta Craw color, is like the Dalhberg craw color that worked so well for Smallies at CJ. I dyed the Chartreuse, Orange, and Pink ones for the Gators that love the Bright "Gummy" colors.
Like I said, the 2.8 is going to be a Smash Hit for "Pavlov's Dog" Crappie, they won't know what hit them...I've got my colors pick out already, as soon as they become available!
