Lots of hype on the Berkley Hollow Belly's pre-season '08. Any reports on how well they worked this past summer? Were there specific situations that they worked best?

I debated buying some, but couldn't justify the high cost.

I mostly used the money minnows and didnt do well early in the year and was ready to give up on them but figured Id give them a full season use. As the year actually went on I started doing quiet well with them and got some confidence in them. Most the fish I caught on them were 3lbs+ and had a few runnings with 'skis on them, too.

This season I might get a smaller version for early in the season.

Also, If you do try them I recommend NOT using the screw on style hooks. You'll get more use out of each bait with a weighted widegap worm hook that is matched to your bait size.

Thats good to hear about their success. Did you ever try skipping them under docks at all?

OH YES, But not offen, Just when i knew there were bigger fish holding under docks. What really helped with the HB is that when it falls it gives off so much vibration and that help trigger more bites.
