Love brads, lot less screwing around, more fishin.
I've caught some kings on Brads, but they are far from my first choice. I've spent a good chunk of change on them too. I should probably run them more.
These are working rather well, with red labels and a 7/0.

If you can drill a new hole down the center of the nose, and let the flasher work the herring with no spin, it'll fish better.
