Up at Lake St. Clair in the clear water I throw it all day long in the river. In and around grass beds, docks weed lines you name it the Zoom 5” fluke is a major player up there(pearly white). I have always fished it fast though not so much luck on the slow retrieve but you have current to deal with and the fish are far more aggressive than down here. The pike and musky love them too up there so when you donate one to Mr. toothy your not out too much money.
By the way Lake St. Clair is worth the drive if you are ever looking for somewhere awesome to fish. I fished Lake Erie last weekend but St. Clair is next on the list.
