I haven't use them much as I have been stocking up on RI Sweet Beavers as the heavy matt, punching season is starting to take off down here. I get locked into certain baits for certain technique's too much. A few months ago my boater was useing a Pit Boss in some weird color and pulling fish out, while I was useing the Beaver and just bareing keeping up with him. I didn't think too much of it as it's allways the bane of an co angler when flipping heavy cover behind a boater who's clipping alone a weed line or circling a matt. If he's any good you really don't have much of chance. Anyway, I asked what he was useing and he threw me one and said "here try this" I did. It didn't increase my hit ratio but I can see why they are so popular on here. The rib's are the key. They displace water in such a way that if you use them to get a faster fall they actually caused bubbles to appear as it fell! Not so much with a slower fall but when crashing down they did. Very surprised at that. I don't think the color mattered much because we where both getting hit at the fall or after just one pop. Anyway, I found a spot for them in my bag. Mike

Ditto If you're in an older boat that doesn't have a rod strap, pin your left leg against the rods and hold onto them with your left hand and the gunnel if you can. Keep them wrapped together will make it easier. Mike

Ditto The reversed, forward facing ribs have been a "feature" on the Skinny Dippers since the beginning. Not saying the Swimmers aren't better,. Don't know, haven't used them yet. Mike

I use 20# Flouro on my jig set up. Braid will work just fine as most everyone seems to use. I just like the added sensitivity it gives In all situations. Mike
