So I found a pack of these in my arsenal...Can't remember why I bought these, but now that I have them.....
Has anyone used these around here and, if so, how do you fish them? I've found a couple of "how to" articles on the web, but would like to know if anyone has tried them.

looks like it would be good on a dropshot or weightless skipping under docks :cyclops:

yep, great on a dropshot, and also great to use with a 1/16 oz darterhead, or texas rigged with a small splitshot. Definitely works great on bedding fish too! Good luck! - Dave

So, it sounds pretty versatile. I tried using it on a dropshot rig, but the color I have is smoke and I wasn't having much luck on anything that day, so it was a "let's try something unusual" tactic.
Thanks for the input.

I really like the smoke color on a dropshot, but honestly I use that more as a summer "pattern" than early spring.

Only use them on dropshot so far and works ok. Too light to go weightless I think.

Nose hooked or wacky rigged?

Fished with the darterhead like a fluke. Sounds like a plan to me!

for me it's always nose hooked, but admittedly I haven't tried wacky rigging them...maybe y2 has?

Hit it right on the button 2000subaru, bait looks good to be fished like a fluke. You could also try fishing that bait weedless/weightless through pads and cover early in the morning once it warms up even though it will probably stay afloat just present it like its an injured bait! jerk on slack line too!

Nose-hooked on a dropshot will work too!

Would also make a spinnerbait w/trailer a delightful presentation!
