Title: River 2 Sea Doggie ?
Post by: jason starling on October 09, 2011, 02:32:52 PM: Anyone tried the river 2 sea doggie 168 stickbaits , they look the goods , something like an x-rap construction ie hard plastic ,internal scales ,thru wire construction . 122 grams and comes with owner trebles , They look really good and i have been buying them for $16-$20 and they claim there foam filled to protect them from tooth punctures ? If they are any good they are awesome value . Have only found them in sinking models , Even though they all foam filled ?

Good value if you ask me.

It requires some technique.
Much easier that some stickbaits.
