I'm plann ing on grabbing the clown color for walleye but the black back/gold side is so money I have no reason to swap baits. I have nothing but positive things to sag about this bait.

Next time count one less, and you will then start the retrieve and the lure will stay just off the bottom. While it's sinking you should count how long it takes. There are a number of different techniques that you can try when using this balsa-made sinking lure.Ĭast the lure and allow it to sink to the bottom.
