    Re: Sammy Colors?

    Thanks for all responses. I bought 1 in the 115 model in the Ghost Minnow Color(Only color they had) and really liked how it preformed as well as the results. I did catch a lot of small fish and had several blow up on the bait but kept working it back, After I fugured out to let it set after one missed, they came back and hit it again.
    I have managed a few keepers, but nothing great, YET!

    Another Question, do any of you have better results on the smaller sizes or do most use the 115 model.

    Thanks

    i fish a small size, probably not in most stores. Mainly i fish smaller baits, but the action of my small one is awesome. i think that the action of a larger one would be incredible and something that larger fish simply wouldn't be able to resist. But that is pure speculation and here-say. Because of the waters, and tackle that i use, small is good for me.

    I feel that it is also important to state AGAIN that the Sammy took a Zara Puppy 10- 0, at the same place at the same time, just for the doubters. Also i got mine out of the trees just as many times as he did, but probably had less of a heart attack than him.

    Bleeding Chart Shad, just got some Lemon Ghost and have had a bit of luck with them.

    The sammy was my first LC lure. In the last 18 months, I have caught more fish on the Sammy 85 then I have caught on Zaraspooks in my entire lifetime and by a big margin. I have never lost a Sammy so these make pretty safe lures to start with.

    I've also gotten into Pointer 78's and 100's. The 78 is a fish catching machine if you get into them just right. I owe my best morning of bassfishing to the 78 on the morning we had the huge cold front come in last spring (the one that killed all the trees). I will never forget it!

    I've had more luck with Daiwa lipless cranks then the LC versions thus far so for me they would not be worth the $15 per bait.

    I like the 100 size the best. I also have a 78 which works OK but it doesn't walk as fluidly as the 100. The 78 wants to jump around some where the 100 walks perfectly. I purchased a 65 but I couldn't get it to walk much at all -- even on 4 lb test. I haven't tried the 115 but I bet it would work well like the 100s.
