they use to be the hot set up for lakers in the 70's
try running them near the bottom with a chartreuse with red dots manistee wobbler or a no.22 Sutton spoon on a 24" lead behind the school of minnows (6- pack)

I actually run one attached to the rigger ball with the release and tether attached to the other end of the 6 pack using it as an attractor.

AHHH Salty, Chartruse with red dots manistee wobbler...those were the days....(1972 to maybe 1975) brings back many happy memories with my dad(now passed) Do you also remember pulling plugs like the luhr Jensen fireplug in an antifreeze color with red and black dots? That was also a killer in those days. And how about Heddon tadpollys....orange with black dots... ;)Thanks for trip down memory lane....jbird

I still have many of my tadpollies. I fished the magnums mostly. I loved them in the Milwaukee breakwall when the Kings staged. They also worked well open water too. I fished one 2 seasons ago (for nostalgia) in September and took only 1 fish on it with it getting spanked fish wise by Fastracs. I had to put it back to rest.

still have a few red tadpolly's around and a few scalelite flies (with the willow leaf) and 3 or 4 pearl wobblers and some rattle spoons.
i have quite a few of the rebel fast tracs - those were one of my dads all time salmon getters, silver with orange and we use to run these when searching for rainbows on calm days and cranked the speed up to 4.5 - 6.5 mph, they really smack them at that speed and doesn't give them time to thing if they want it or not

They don't work anymore.
