6th Sense Speed Wake

[Quillback]

Went over to Hook, LIne and Sinker today to buy some red worms for some bream fishing.  They had some Speed Wakes hanging on the wall behind the cash register.  So making a trip to get some worms ended up costing $50.

Maybe here in Oklahoma they have not learned yet.

Mine worked perfect. It did however break at the hinge as the fish was shaking its head

Plastic hinge or a metal pin? The newer ones had the pin didn't they? Or was it just the newer King Shads that had the better hinge?Idk

I've got 3 king shads and 2 wake shads, they have been retired from their duties for a while now. They were replaced by the Big Bait Special Bulldog😉

Plastic.  Steve up at Sportsman Outfitters ie Lews told me yesterday that Strike King is coming out with a new and improved one  using metal in the hinge.

Thank You for your help with our economic recovery! I have been doing my part as well. I have collected lures most of my life. I just tell my wife that all those pre rapala warts are our IRA!

Let us know how they work!

Took 10 days to get the two I ordered.  Used it this morning just prior and after the Hurricane and it is fantastic.  Let me clarify that a bit.  I must have caught a dozen white bass on it.  It has probably been at least 15 years since I saw the number of whites that were in the Baxter area this morning.  Just every wind blown pocket they were churning.  Massive schools that would fill a good portion of the pocket and the shad, both gizzard and threadfin were simply packed into those wind blow coves.

Caught 2 small K's on it and 4 small K's on a Surge Shad.  The Surge Shad runs great, but it has a totally different wake than a fin,  much tighter and faster.

Had 4 keepers, 2 on a jig in front of the bushes, and that's nearly 20' deep and 2 swimming the 2.8" Keitech.

On a sad note I put a dandy of a scratch on my boat on an unprotected dock I had to hide under.  First scratch I have ever put on one so I guess it was time.  I won't be able to look at it so I'll call Rick Lisek and have him fix it as soon as possible so I can sleep at night.

Probably  one of the worst wind storms I have ever been caught out in this morning.  Man it was just flat terrible between Shell Knob and Baxter.  Glad I had the big Phoenix to ride it out, then I went and put a gash in her.

Good Luck

Sorry about that gash - probably had that same wind blow through Bella Vista early this morning, maybe for about 10 minutes it really blew, would not want to be out on any lake when that comes through.
