| Buddy of mine tried to get me fired up about these lures a few years back. First time I used one I tried to flick the rod tip on retrieve to make it flick about like a surface or sub-surface plug, and it listed on top like a red tide victim. He shook his head, cast his own DOA mullet and retrieved it in slow, long pulls and short pauses, making sure it glided just under the surface. (If you watch finger mullet swim, they kick and glide like that). A half hour later he hooked and caught a 34" snook on the edge of the flat. Not sure if this is what the manufacturer had in mind, but I assume it is. They require a very methodical, patient approach. I'm an impatient guy who likes to see his plugs kick and flash, so I didn't stick with them. But they do work. And I hear big tarpon like them, too.

the new BFL (Big Fish Lure) from DOA. It has a replaceable bill and different sizes which allows you to customize the depth it can be fished.

| I bought a few for Tarpon (along will the bait busters) and they work very well on bull reds that were holding deep.
I just bounced them off the bottom w/ the tide.
Got these guys last fall

| Nice Sam, I have used the Bait Buster and had success on tarpon, but I think I'll give the swimming mullet a try now.
