Hi Guys,
Wondering if anyone has used shout entice & smith baby runboh stickbaits? If so, are they similiar in action compared to any of your more popular stickbaits such as carpenters, fisherman and hammerhead.
Regards
Luke

Luke,
I have both the mentioned lures for an upcoming trip to NZ.
I will be able to let you know accurately after the trip in March.
I swum the shout entice ones the other day in my pool....They had a nice action on them.

I haven't tried the shout, but I'm a fan of the Runboh. It is a shorter fatter stickbait than some of the others mentioned and has a real action of its own as it is drawn through the water - it will actually handle a bit of speed on the retreive and a lack of finesse.......unlike some of the others! So it comes in real handy when you are not concentrating!
A pretty easy lure to form a relationship with.

I am all for stickbaits that understand and do not punish a lack of finesse :). *crank* *crank*

Thanks for all the replies....
I guess each individual lure has it's own type of retrival.
They just dont get mentioned alot so I thought I may ask before putting another hole in my pocket.....Might have to give them a go!
Cheers
