Anyone ever use a Ghost glider. Not the Grey Ghost, this one looks identical to the Phantom.
Just wondering if the action is similiar to the Phantom?
Thanks.

I was going to give it a try (like we all don't have enough stuff) but if you want to bid Damian let her rip! Does look a lot like a phantom. -Eric

I think I own that exact Phantom. Maybe the guy forgot what it's called.

Maybe the guy is just confused. Webster's has this to add:
Phantom: 1 a : something (as a specter) apparent to sense but with no substantial existence
Ghost: a disembodied soul; especially : the soul of a dead person believed to be an inhabitant of the unseen world or to appear to the living in bodily likeness. A faint shadowy trace
They're kinda similar.
Turns out I already have this exact lure. Somehow it ghostly being has managed to avoid being eaten by one known toothy critter though. -Eric

I would bet it is a Phantom. I just picked my 6" walleye phantom out of the box and the coloring is identical. The hooks and split rings are also the same. The only difference is that mine does not have the short bars between the ones that go to the bottom.
What HR are you looking at? There's a few nice ones. I've got my on this one:

This bait is a Phantom knockoff,seems like odyssey likes to do this a lot.The original pig lure that they make was also a bait that they copied from the european market several years ago.They also tried to copy the bulldawg,but someone stepped in and stopped it.

only went for $10 bones so I don't think anyone was really duped...... nice to have this talk online - its like having a group of lure experts analyzing a prospective buy. thanks
