Yep son and I were fishing it yesterday AM in Central Oregon until the
incoming storm chased us home. We were using one fly fishing where I
embedded glass rattles in it and it conked my boy nicely up side of the
head. (thanks wind ugh!)

With an ultralite, you can hunk them a country mile! Later he was ultralite
casting it cross wind, the wind caught it, sent it back and he had to drop
to his knees to keep that sucker from hitting him in the face g Dang wind!

With that wind blowing us, just a little twitch makes them wiggle but your
Spectastic would be better if we could figure out how to use it on topwater
g



In shallow water, I use it with a 9 1/2 foot Saint Croix Steel head rod,
and a 7 to 9 foot leader between the lure (fly's work great) and the
SpecTastic. I quiver my hand,, which quivers the lure on the surface.
With practice, you can easily duplicate the action of an insect that's
stuck on the water surface. It turns fishing,, into catching :-)

You can also do this using a fly rod and reel, Use the "weight release
wires" and a tiny split shot crimped on the wire, bend the wire to grab
the bottom, to allow you to work your fly.

My Dynamite worm (called that because it duplicates the success of
putting fish in the boat as a stick of dynamite) works so well, it has
an "instant" Money back warranty, without even returning the product,
if it does not out catch any other method or lure,, even live bait used
by anyone fishing next to you. All you have to do is email me, and tell
me another method or bait beat it. I will instantly PayPal you a "total"
refund including the S&H. The Dynamite comes with a complete Wiggle kit
less weights

Another way to fish it top water, is throwing the weight on the bank,,
or on top of weeds,, this really catches fish when they are around the banks
