After using Venom's last year, my Thills went the way of the dinosaur. I use them year round....absolutely fantatstic, and infinately adjustable. In fact,  Dawg was the one that pushed me into using them. Glad he did.  ;D

You can set them so your bait will fall very slowly and at times fish will rise up and just nail it as it comes down to them.
