[QUOTE="svnmag, post: 364300, member: 330"] Ever tried casting? IME "deep" Shad Raps consistently go batshit in the middle of trajectory and lose at least ten yards comparable to weight. Forget a headwind and most use with baitcasting tackle. I surmise fixing the casting issue would retard the the intended action. Terminal tackle can be modded to fish a shallow Shad Rap at any depth:). I remember the first article about Shad Raps in OL by Gerry Gibbs when I was I kid. The only versions available were deep runners which were pulled at extreme speed in the "froth" and would not go "off track". The original concept seemed to be a trolling lure with no consideration to superfluous achievable depth with lip length. I suppose it's better having the lure run below the cannon ball. IDK: A shallow will give three feet depending on size so I maintain "superfluous". Y'all should get some beers, make a Cuban Sandwich (I posted an awesome thread about these sandwiches) and contemplate spending cash on Shad Rap knock offs.
