Super User Hooligan Posted May 20, 2017 Super User Posted May 20, 2017 Am I the only one gonzo enough to have fished this thing? It fishes. Take that bottom hook off, and it's an all terrain quacker. I got one and thought...what the heck. We've got tons of curly leaf pond weed on a couple lakes around, and this thing is perfect for those. It moves right over the top of it, no issues. Every once in a while, clean out the little bushings so the feet rotate, and you're golden. give it a shot if you haven't. It's definitely different. 1 Quote
Super User Jar11591 Posted May 20, 2017 Super User Posted May 20, 2017 I have one and have thrown it a few times. Haven't spend much time actually fishing it though. Like you said, if you remove the bottom treble it becomes pretty weedless. It's a cool bait and definitely causes commotion in the water. I'm sure I can get a bass on it this year. Quote
d-camarena Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 Id be too embarrassed to be seen throwing the duck at my local lake. No thanks 1 Quote
CTBassin860 Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 What's embarrassing about the duck?I'll throw a pink vibrator with trebles on it if it works.Ill even turn it on for extra water displacement . 22 Quote

Tucson Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 I always wear one when fishing so the chicks don't go crazy, swimming out to my boat to introduce themselves in their skimpy little size 3 bikinis and all. I guess my handsomeness is a two-edged sword but can sometimes be the burden I must bear. Quote

Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted May 21, 2017 Global Moderator Posted May 21, 2017 I haven't thrown mine as much as I should but it does work. I need to get one of the white ones. Quote
XpressJeff Posted May 21, 2017 Posted May 21, 2017 Do the pike where size 3 bikinis when they introduce themselves? That might just foul the treble eh? Quote

Super User RoLo Posted May 22, 2017 Super User Posted May 22, 2017 I was just so stoked about this lure, that I beat a path to my local tackle shop. Then I got the bad news! The Suicide Duck is not available in 'Gadwall' nor 'Baldpate' I'm Outta Here! 2 Quote

Savage Gear is based overseas where pike are the primary predator fish and there's no bass to be found. A lot of their baits are designed with pike in mind, but bass are predators too and I can confirm they will eat the duck too. It isn't quite as loud as a Whopper plopper, but it's pretty similar.

Super User Hooligan Posted May 22, 2017 Author Super User Posted May 22, 2017 A: Yes, I've caught many fish on it. It's a repeatable lure, not a one hit wonder. B: I would imagine it would be a great pike bait, too. We don't really have any around, minus one lake, so I don't worry about it. Quote

Comfortably Numb Posted May 25, 2017 Posted May 25, 2017 It's a fun lure that catches fish. Are there better options to throw? Probably 1 Quote

Super User fishwizzard Posted May 25, 2017 Super User Posted May 25, 2017 I bought one to hang on our xmas tree after my wife complained I lacked holiday spirit. I do plan to fish it, there is a suburban pond with a low wall all around that I fish that has a pattern that will be perfect for it. Kids come and feed the ducks, when the ducks swarm the wall the sunfish follow them in but the hundreds. I have found that the bass will then come over and can be caught right on the outer fringes of the duck/sunfish cluster. Quote
