Anybody have any luck with them. I just purchased a few.

yep. great bait. i have great success in water a little over 50 degrees to about 60.

Deadly when ripped out of grass!

Caught some nice fish last year on a sexy shad version.

Not saying they're any better than another lipless

[bear7625]

They are, without a doubt, one of the best lipless on the market!

Thanks for the input. I'll be trying them out in a few weeks.

I ordered a few from TW last week, going to try them out this weekend if it doesnt rain.

heh-heh...this is exactly why strike king pays KVD almost $500,000/year!

I know Strike King says they're good, but I tend to rely on more down to earth feedback from everyday fisherman. If I got paid $500,000 from a company their baits would be great.

I caught my first 5+ lber just a few weeks ago on a bright orange red eye shad - then the next cast a 7....id say I am a fan - having said that, I use bill lewis, cotton's, and a couple others and have caught on em too pretty regularly.....I suspect its more about size of the trap and color than anything else

[BigEbass]

I will add that I especially like them because they are so versatile - I fish em shallow, deep, slow - my neighbor 3 weeks ago threw one out and got a huge bird's nest - he was picking at it for a couple minutes - there was abolutely no tension on the line - and all the sudden a fish was on - he was holding the rod/reel and I was pulling in the line - I swear that fish picked it up off the bottom...anyway, you can do a bunch with em - its a staple - and I absolutely keep on tied on if there if there are bass schooling or busting on shad!!

Red Eye Shad are quickly becoming my favorite lipless crank. I caught quite a few bass (both LMB & SMB) on them last year, so I picked up several more when our local Wally-World put them on clearance for $1.00 ea. ;D

Red Eye Shads are awesome.  I typically dont fish them around any brush or submerged trees.  I stick to using them around different grasses and weeds.  I dont like to fish them too shallow, but if the conditions are right, they will work well there as well.  I would definately go with gold and silver...based on the clarity of the water, and I have had a quite a bit of luck on green gizard color.

I've had a lot of success with this bait, I own several and it's definetely one of the best trap style baits on the market.
