Sam Turner –
Used this lure in a tailwater section after a big dam. The color matched the natural sowbugs perfectly. Trout took it immediately, even when they were very selective. A solid choice for that environment.
Anne Gray –
Felt like a natural sowbug when cast. Worked well in slow-moving water where trout were feeding on the bottom. Not flashy, but effective.
Justin Morrison –
Caught several trout in a single session using this pattern. The tungsten weight helped it sink and stay stable. Great for tailwater fishing.
