these are great lures they do have to be tuned ive found that if you hold the pliers and turn the bait to tune them. once they running straight they are deadly i have caught everything from bluegill to bass even a walleye and smallmouth and catfish. if your not catching fish just change up your retrieve. sometimes if nothing is working i reel it as fast as i can and almost always catch some like that. i have caught more fish with these lures than any other lure i have ever used.
