has anybody done any good using brads? They dont seem to work as good as the hot and tots. I kie to get some hot and tots mags.

I tried one of the regular sized and it seemed to work just like the hot-n-tots. The fish didn't seem to mind it.

They work fine, but the paint chips off real fast at least on the black ones which I use.

Maybe its just me..... But the brads seem to dive deeper or dive at a different angle? All Iknow is they hang up on the bottom alot more than Hot-n-tots..... I used to use 12lb UG with Hot-n-tots. I went to 15 with the Brads Thatseemed to keep them from diving into the bottom and getting snagged.....
