    Early 2000s Andre Moore designed The Ball Buster wacky worm for Reaction Innovations, they worked great but never really sold like his other baits. Later he left RI and tournament bass fishing to saltwater fishing.

    Palaniuk had something similar at Berkeley but it was a super thin like a trick worm. Too small of a profile for my liking.

    The Ball Buster would get some bites, but when you caught one, they would headshake and the little balls would snap off and then you would be left with a shorter worm with less action that didn't work as well, so they were only usually good for one fish. Then you needed a new bait, and you would go through a pack real quick.

    I like the Drew boys... Drew Squared I call them, Cook and Benton. Travel together, work together, have a really good YT series called The Cut Line.

    Drew got some flack for callilng out Milliken's Pest Control commercial spot a few years back - personally I didn't see anything wrong with it, but all the MF's or course had a field day over it. But these two are two guys I am alwasy pulling for. Partly b/c they are from some of my old stomping grounds as well.

    And as already mentioned a few times, it's likely the one they are working up with Spro. He also mentioned it at one of the wiegh-in days at Pasquatank i believe...
