Just don't let the red/black near anything but all black. They bleed really badly.
The reason I don't fish sluggos more is the fishing style you need is exhausting if you're not used to it. Hunched over shaking the tip and cranking like a madman. Hurts my back.

I think it's kinda funny how one guy posts a message informing others on how well he's done with the rigged slug-go, including many really nice fish, and other people have the (fill in your own word) to argue that the lure may not be so good. If Steve catches so well on it, it obviously works. If you're not catching on it, maybe your technique is off. Always take the advice of someone who is so successful. It is true that some people catch on it, and some people don't. Those who don't should listen more carefully to those who do.
I've also seen many people ramble online about how lousy Mambo Minnows are. I've seen many nice fish fall to these lures, also. Don't forget, there is no magic lure that will work right out of the box using any and all techniques. Skill ups the catch ratio, and skill comes only through practice.

Slug-go
All artificials will take big bass sometimes. The 9 inch black slug-go will take big bass 99 percent of the time. It is the closest thing to a live eel you can get with a fake. I experimented with this thing for 4 seasons now and I can absolutly state that if a bass is in front of you and your using the slug-go, your going to get action. Case in point-- I've been in to fish on many occasions using the slug-go, taken it off purposely to try one of the other "proven killers" only to be disappointed, then put the slug-go back on and started catching fish again. I know they can be expensive and a pain to rig but they are very , very productive.

Steve is not in cahoots with Sluggo in anyway, he's just giving you info(that he doesn't have to give) to try to help out.... Take it or leave it is what I say.
What's up Steve??

Which proves that some nights bass prefer one artifical over others, not that that artifical is better than all others all the time. Next night the tables may be reversed, but the guy who sticks to one technique because of absolute faith in it doesn't see it that way. He just thinks there are no bass in front of him. That said, often I'll run through several different plugs without a touch and then move on still wondering if fish were out there but ignoring me. Easy enough to snap on a sluggo instead and make a few more casts........Steve's faith in them is reason enough to try it.
