This lure performs consistently in both clear and murky water. The flicker action draws fish in easily, and the color options help match the local baitfish. Great for targeting bass and trout.

Felt the weight transfer made casting easier and more accurate. The hook retention was solid, though one hook slightly bent after a large catch. Overall, a solid performer.
