Anyone try one? This flash boost intrigues me.

Nice bait.  Runs pretty shallow.

I almost bought a couple.  Matt Allen mentioned them in one of his recent YouTube videos...  

 

Currently holding the bait monkey at bay... it's a tough battle.

I have used it a lot since they came out. My biggest fish have come in clear water when the bait is not moving at all - in other words a really long pause. That tells me the Flash Boost is doing something.

That just sold me on one right there.  Now what color...

This is what I caught mine on:

Had one on my first cast with one and haven't caught anything since that cast.  I casted up at a the corner of a dock with a very steep bank.  Noticed I had a bit of an overrun and spent a minute picking it out, jerked it a couple times, let it sit, wham.  

 

Tried to replicate it in many different places and times, but haven't been able to get anything off it since.

 

Other notes, doesn't seem to hunt quite as much as the Stunna.  Also runs pretty shallow (haven't tried the deeper version).  The hooks are nice and sharp from the factory.

Finally got to fish the normal and deep versions this weekend. East texas timber, east texas water color. 

Caught three over six lbs on the two world boost jerkbaits, and nothing of any size on vision 110 (all depths) or lucky craft. They would move to come eat it. I figured it was just profile or color so immediately started running through other stuff. Nope. It was these specific ones. 

 

It's nice that the hooks are sufficient for heavy cover too.
