I went out Sunday morning to kill a few hours. Started the morning using my 7"er and it was a little slow. Then I swicth over to a new bait I found in Pensacola. We used this bait from 9am to around 11:30am and the results were very good.
Ended up with eight trout over 19" one just over 20" and a 24"er for a 5 fish - 14lbs. 8oz. stringer. We only through back two trout that were 15.5". What I liked the best is, these fish were caught in three different locations.
Can't wait to try this bait out some more this weekend. The Jury is still out.
I'm waiting on the picture and will post them when they are sent to me.
If we were all crazy, Wouldn't that make us all normal.
The site doesn't show the bait I was using. It was a twich-bait (5"). They call the color Pearl, I would call it a Bronze color.
I found the bait to cast better then most 5" twich baits. It is also a scented bait. Can't wait to try it in some other areas this weekend.

Thats funny. I just looked at a pack of the ones I have. They are 6". I guess after using those 7" baits for so long they looked to be 5".
The only issue is they are slick and hard to hood the way I fish them the way you fish them would be easier.
Yes, they are very slick. I did hook them my way and it worked out fine. I even ran out of hooks (Rocks). So I had to custom bend some other hooks so the bait would perform right in the water.

I've been using these baits too. They're nice. They're eco friendly, put off a scent and don't dry out. This web site shows their saltwater bio-bait big bite bait line. Is that what you guys were using?
