Plus the 6" BPs Stiko's are the same price and if I want a 5" I can just cut it down...even though they are a bit fatter. Green Pumpkin, Black w/Blue Fleck, and June Bug are my top three with a close 4th being Grn Pumkin/Chartruese swirl for more of a reaction bite. The toothy characters love that chartruese.

Do you wacky 6" senko? or T-rigged or Carolina? If you T-rig, do you put a bullet weight on it?

Yes, 7" is huge. It doesn't seem like 7" casts farther than the 5" since it's so so FAT.
