Does anyone have a preference on the hole selection on the Lit'l Nitro/Gay Blade? I haven't fished it enough to figure out which one the fish like most. Just kind of wondering what everyone else thinks...

I run it on the middle hole. I can vertical jig it fine or get a nice wobble if I'm casting and retrieving it. Those afre the only two ways I fish it. If you use the back hole, it stands on its nose when you retrieve it. If you use the front hole, it comes in more horizontal with less wobble. I'm sure there are time when running on a different hole is better, just haven't played around with it enough. Maybe some others can share how they fish it differently.
Here's a better description from Heddon Sonar:
The front hole, for shallow running and high vibration. The rear hole produces deep running and a wide, slower, wobbling action. The center hole is perfect for jigging, a technique especially effective for ice fishing.

I have used some of the "knock off 's" and have had good success with them. Last fall, for example, my fishing buddy and I caught 21 consecutive nice kentucky's off of a point in Ky. Lake. He was using a Yo-Zuri lipless lure and me the Silver Buddy knock off. Caught several others on it last fall also.
Eyeballing the bank is not a bad idea. Lol. Nothing quite like a Silver Buddy.
They have some at the Cain Pole in Richmond. Also Billy's Great Outdoors it's new it's in the old building Pittsburg marine use to be in which is across from the one now in London. When you find em you better buy them all.
bullfrog is closed.
I was at the One Stop last week and they do have some Silver Buddies. They also have some punisher type silver buddies that look good.
Picked em up at the Cain pole in Richmond myself about a week ago. The real one's, with galvonized hooks.
Bullfrog is OPEN, and everything is indeed 50% off. I was there not an hour ago. Won't be open for long at this rate. He still has plenty of tackle on the shelves, but it is starting to look picked over. Lots of cranks, spinners, buzz, and soft plastic baits.
