Strike king shallow water hybrid hunter

[Dannyinorthidaho]

I got one of these. I ordered delta red? couldn’t resist! Has anyone done good on it? Particularly on smallmouth? Dives 3-5 ft. They say it moves well through grass better than other hard baits. I guess somebody needs to try n come up with something!

 

I’ve yet to get out since selling my great boat but I do have a new outcast cruzer float tube. I appreciate the feedback

In last year's B.A.S.S. tournament, guys were killing it with the Hybrid Hunter.  I ordered one and threw it a few times.  It does run in shallow grass pretty well.  Other than that, I haven't thrown it much.

I was throwing the same one last week (delta red junior version).  I have fished the bigger one before.  It comes through sparse grass better than a lipless or other lipped crankbait.  But its not a cureall and you'll still pick up a lot of grass.  A high rod tip seemed to help a bit (yes it was running shallower then so that helps too).

Love the hybrid hunters.  Picked up a few last season, along with the smaller jr size.  Smallies love 'em, too.

Pre-spawn, shallow flats the Hybrid Junior works very well.  Might dive a little less than its big brother, and resists emerging vegetation this time of year fairly well.

It's my favorite shallow crankbait around wood when the water is warmer.

 

It seems to come through laydowns better than any crankbait I've ever used.  I can't comment on the efficacy of it in grass but I've never liked any lipped baits in grass.

I've used the strike king shallow water hybrid hunter in the past and have had some success with it, particularly in shallow waters and around grass. The delta red color should work well in stained water. As for advice, try varying your retrieval speed and using a twitch-pause retrieve to mimic a wounded baitfish

Hey I've got a question about the Hybrid Hunter and it's still May. Which 1 of the colors looks most like a bluegill?
