lads - new to lure fishing and wondering whats the best way to use a Kilty Catcher lure? e.g straight retrieve, sink & draw, fast pace or slow?
Will be fishing in 12 - 20 feet depth of water. looking for macks and a very bonus bass initially.

Re: Kilty Catcher
12 - 20 feet I'd say sink and draw, let it sink down the water column with a slow retrieve, you catch alot of mack when its sinking.
A bad day fishing is better than a good day at the office!

Re: Kilty Catcher
thanks lads - sink & draw is proving most successful method for me.
