Will definitely use it more and experiment because I never realize just how fast/much water you can cover with this thing. Its about like fishing a crankbait more so than a jig.

I do use it a lot as a search bait. I like cranking too but my fingers and shoulders are somewhat arthritic and need to change up every so often. sometimes when I find fish I'll slow down a little longer between pauses. Oh ....always keep a taut line, especially reeling down. Slack will prevent you from feeling the subtle bites.
