Grappler shad

Anyone use grappler shads by cotton cordel? What do you think of them? They look almost identical to the lindy shadlings but a little less expensive where I've seen them.

I have tried Grappler shads they are a great trolling bait, they will run over 4MPH and not blow out. But I have yet to this day after 5 years never caught a fish on any of them trying them of and on.....go figure

I've got a couple of them. Finish started coming off both after only a couple of fish, but they did catch 'em. Bill on one cracked off the first day, but it was getting banged up in some rocks.

i used them to catch a couple king salmon at oahe a few years back, ran em on leadcore 30 foot down over 120 fow, never gave them a chance on walleye

Ihave used them in my home river(small), and they work well for that. They catch fish and I don't think too much about throwing them in iffy areas at 3$. With shad raps I sometimes think twice...

Only bought and tried one once-was totally out of tune out of the box and could not be tuned no matter how much I tried-finally gave up-my time on the water is too precious to waste trying to tune a crappy lure-will never buy one again.
