caranx Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 (edited) Yep...crank fast, rest...slow...fast...rest...etc....great lures on bonnies and salmon. You can sweep your rod as well for short bursts of speed . Edited November 7, 2009 by caranx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caranx Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 I use them all the time...before sunup, after, middle of the day and sunset. Doesnt matter at all. Fish like bonnies and salmon turn up anytime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caranx Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 They dont take up room so always leave one or two in the box. If you see a bust up you can cast them out, and even if no wash can still use them. I use them in the hacking and there isnt a wash there but they still work if the right fish passes.
