Looks like an interesting lure.

That video was really frightening at the end though....

the 5.5" one is an awesome dropshot bait , i like to use it with a 2/0 Owner rig-n-hook EWG . that tail practically moves on it's own!! the 8" bait is fantastic texas rigged with those internal tube weights -http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_44436_100010003_100000000_100010000_100-10-3 and the rattling ones are good too -http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_44438_100010003_100000000_100010000_100-10-3

These are not a new idea.  A while back, 5 or 7 years ago, Lucky Strike plastics had a very similar bait out, i.e. a tube with a long tail.  I  recall buying a couple of packs, but I don't remember any great success.  It seems like Gene Larew has better colors than I remember the other brand having.

I got two pasks last year to try out, and did well enough with them to buy several more for this year.

I fished them t-rigged with a pegged weight, with an internal jighead, and with a t-rigged hook and internal tube weight. the last was the best producer for some reason.

A versatile bait. Godd for slow deadsticking, and good ,with a bit more weight, for a faster bottom hopping retrieve.

I like to fish them split shot style in shallow water, and T-rigged w/ a lighter weight. I caught some nice fish with it, and even some not much bigger than itself.

I may give them a shot since it seems to be a very versatile bait. Did you see the "bass boat crash" video that was in the related videos section on your youtube link? Crazy #@$%!!!

You are supposed to swim these on the top, looks like a fleeing minnow. That's how Biffle fishes them anyway, it was in an old BASS magazine.

The only thing you're "supposed" to do with any bait is fish it in the water.

I'm sorry, let me rephrase myself, that is the preferred method.

i was gonna say  :o , these baits are very versatile and can be fished thru the entire water column . i have had more "production" with the drop shot with the 5.5" and with using the 8" ones, they excell at bottom hopping as Ghotti said . it is up to you to find the best way (the fishes way they want em' !!) to fish them , i guess what i'm saying is that this is a bait that definitly has a place in your tackle box !!! btw, colors that , for me , work good are the 'threadfin shad" and "perch" .  ;)
