Greg Hackney breaks down when and where he uses the Strike King Hybrid Hunter Shallow & Shallow Jr. Featured Products: - Hybrid Hunter Shallow: www.strikeking.com/en/shop/ha...
This is my favorite bait I'm from Okeechobee Florida, catching them this year on northeast Kansas. I can't wait to get back to South Florida to fish the hybrid hunter
I used the Hyburd Hunter Jr. In the Red craw color. Caught 13 largies. Before the spawn in 4ft of water. 3 females or 4 pds. Everyone of the males over 2 pds. Never have I caught so many big males. The females were full of eggs. No matter what color I use. This bait is awesome. It just produces! Thats all. I crank then let it float to the top. Then 2 to cranks. Stop. Until I catch one. Then I know the Candace. That works. I am 63. This year I decided. Not to buy anymore cranks. But Todd comviced me to try one more bait. Up till now. The Strike King 1.5 squarebill in Sexy Shad color. Has out produced any other crank. In the last 5 years. I have caught hundreds of bass on that bait. Put both baits to the test. 6 to one Quantum Smoke S3 PT Baitcaster. 30 pd Suffix braid in Green moss color on a Hank Parker MH FAST action baitcaster rod. I got to tell you The Hybird Hunter Jr. stayed with the StrikeKing 1.5 squarebill. Cast for cast. I fish ponds. No boat. I fish both the exact sametime amount during a nice spring day. It was a great challenge. Really had fun. Testing what these Pro's say! Next to a Senko or Chatterbait or even a Double Williow bladed StrikeKing Spinnerbait. This baits just flat out produces.. Give them a try. Next time out fishing. Shawn
@ToddCastledinefishing is the OG of this bait. And Hackney and KVD have this bait actually tied on during tournaments, because I look. Plus, it really REALLY catches fish.
Original bait was a Strike Pro Bubba. Strike King bought the rights to it from Strike Pro. They didn’t knock it off like Berkley does to most good baits.
