They're the best artificial bait I've ever used in the speckled trout fishery. Ive seen them out fish live shrimp. Plus they're very durable and I've seen them hold up to 30 or 40 fish and still be fishing.

I know a few guides who have stopped using live shrimp because of how effective they are.

I'm not blowing smoke. They're the real deal.

Nailed it. I feel the same way. Tried to buy live shimp one morning last year and they were out. Guy behind the counter gave me a pack and said the guides had been using them and doing well. I bought 2 packs that day and haven't bought live shrimp since. They are legit.

Welp one of my fishing buddies says hes been using them for two years now. Maybe I just had a personal vudu bias. Will be trying these out asap.
