DTFLAT03' Shallow Runner

[misr12]

I have owned DT Flats 7's since early 2006. Never fished them much until my recent purchase of the new released DT Flat03 (shallow runners). I live in Birmingham, Alabama and we have some great bass fisheries nearby. Recently, BASS voted Birmingham the bass capital of the USA. Now I know that is debatable but the fishing is quite good. After my recent purchase of the DTFlat03' (I am a shallow cranbait mostly) all I can say is get some and fish the wood. These new shallow DTFlat's are awesome. I usally catch up to 15 bass in a 6 hour period this time of the year bumping them off laydowns and stumps. Lucky Crafts are very popular around here and I have them but I keep coming back to my DT's. They work better for me.

Regarding the DTFlat07. These are suspending baits. Not sure if the public is aware of this. I have turned my swimiing pool into my lure test pool (grin). I noticed the DTFlat07 suspends. Knowing this I fish it differently. I have started catching fish by pausing my DTF07 like a jerkbait.

What a great lure. Come Ooooon Down and fish the DT's and catch some of our famous Coosa Spots the most fierce bass in it's species. Afte catching one you will understand why we are so proud of our Coosa Spots (bass).

I think you thinking of the now classic DT4. This is a new release within the last 3-4 weeks. It's a shallow running version of the DT Flat07. This is a new release. In my opinion the DT Flat03 runs around 4-5' depending on the line. I am now cranking with 14lb flourocarbon witch might help the the DTF03 to rund a bit deeper.

Yeah, thats what i was thinking of. I had seen an Lindners Anglers Edge episode, and they were using mostelyFlat DT 3's. They look like they would work well in the places i usually fish, and i'll probably end up getting one by the end of this year.

Just seen a few models in Dicks a couple of weeks ago, so they're probably in stores...
