The sling blade is my go to dodger for trout and Kokanee. I love that I can bend it for a more aggressive presentation.

I use the Slingblade in a variety of colors including the UV Series and have not been disappointed. I only would state, if there was an issue, they came in a size or two larger, as I have found the Rainbows in our local lake love to hit what trails these. I have caught several mature (15"-20") kokanee trolling these rigs.

They produce good action on my lures and hold up for several seasons.

Works well over a wide speed range. Has taken many kokanee and some nice lakers. Simple but effective. Not too much resistance on retrieve.

When used with a squid skirt Hoochie they can be very productive for West coast salmon
