Nice catch...I remember when sliders first came out..I bought the slider heads and all and was using them to fish weedless in timber. Didn't occur to me for a good while to just cast the things on a regular head or roadrunner. Some days Sliders are pure poison. In the summer and fall the smoke glitter matches the shad fry real good and sometimes out fishes the bright (clown colors I call em) for me at times... .
