Free shipping on orders over $25 thru labor day.. Don't mix with other plastics. I don't know what happens, but it's supposed to be like feeding gremlins after midnight... I wonder if those artificial ghost shrimp would catch pompano? Coupon code: SHIPMEFREE link |

Have used those shrimp in Destin with some success, but they are not as tough as claimed. The very active tail section is that way because of a piece of Kevlar that allows it to flap. If there are any pinfish or other toothy critters around they bite the tail off just like a curl tail grub. We caught some trout on them under a popping cork but not enough to warrant the price when other cheaper baits worked. Just my 2 cents.  |

I refrained from comment because they may work for some folks but not so much for me and I agree with troutslayer. I love the looks of the shrimp but I found them a little small in size and they just don't hold up as well as they claim they will. They aren't worth the cost in my opinion especially when you can buy similar shrimp shaped lures from D.O.A., Riptide, and others that work just as well or better at much less cost... Bottom line.. if you have confidence in the lure, buy it. It will work for ya |

Bottom line.. if you have confidence in the lure, buy it. It will work for ya That is the secret ...If you like the lure, use it..The only way to catch fish is to have a bait in the water as much as possible. If you use a lure that you have consistently caught fish with, you will tend to keep bait in the water for longer periods, which will increase your chances of catching. I have a couple of baits that I always start the day with, and wear them out before switching to something different...I am not a great fisherman by any stretch of the imagination, but I do catch fish every now and then....Consistency, Patience, and Luck all play a part, and talking to other fisherman fishing the same areas as yourself...When fishing the ocean I listen to the head boats/Charters, and other people fishing, on my VHF, for clues as to what is being caught and where..I have also learned to keep it simple...Just saying..Good luck and tight lines to all on this forum..  |
