Was fishing Puddingstone tonight and met up with a guy who was throwing the 8". We were watching the action from the dock and he was experimenting. It had great action worked slow and kind of as a jerk bait. Something the Hud couldn't do. Then one time when he cast it , it also broke at the first joint in mid air and the two pieces went in two different directions. I was very impressed with the action, but at $20 a piece the bait was too short lived.
