Wild shiner is very good.It really catches you eye doesn't it ?I can understand why the swimbaits were sold out at a dollar a peice. The Aruku shad trap will fish through stuff other traps will get snagged up on.and I like the for slow fishing , alsmost dead sticking. When the bait fish get back in the creeks to spawn, sometimes they die off and you can imitate them dying to catch fish you normally won't catch using another presentation.You can fish the trap in those areas, let it sit on bottom paused for a minute, maybe more ,then jerk your rod tip up about 3-4 " and let the trap fall back to the bottom.Its slow fishing, but produces very well at times.The Aruku shad will sit upright on the bottom more often than any other trap I have fished so far the other trap I like to use is a Lucky craft LV-0, it has a short bill on it, but is a rattle trap design.It fishes about as good as the Aruku, the price of them I simply don't have the confidence to throw them where I would a Aruku shad. You can nearly buy 2 Arukus for the price of 1 Lucky craft. P N J

I looked at the lucky crafts. But then I said no, and bought a aruka shad and a bunch of other stuff. Thanks for the tips. Has anyone tried the STrom Kickin' Minnow?
