LoudMouth Baitifsh
Loudmouth baitfish, in the vise it's awesome, in the water it screams "Eat Me Please" to any fish that's around and they usually do. Tie from small to jumbo in many colors for any species you are targeting and expect big things. Please even though it is a pain, or an extra step sometimes put eyes on most baitfish patterns, the difference is tremendous.
