Hard swimbaits

Featured Replies

I'm looking for a hard body swimbait and was wondering your guys' favorite brand I LOVE the mattlures but I tend to lose a lot of baits and so I'm looking for a cheaper alternative in 10-20 dollar range thanks

Hmmm, a hard swimbait that's a Quality bait can't be had for 10 to 20.00. that I know of. BBZ1 shad is about 20.00 in the smaller model.

How are you losing lots of baits..?  Maybe we can help with that.?

4 inch or 5 inch tru tungsten tru life swimbait. on a heavier rod with 15 pound flouro. its a good bet I had 6 fish on 3 cast with this set up today.

I have heard good and bad but more on the bad side

I would also leave the reaction Strike baits alone.

What about soft baits, like Matt's or the Huddelston 6" weedless..? They can be bought for under 20.00.

I like the giron's action to although i haven't used it to much seems like a good durable bait

instead of the jackal giron , try the BLACKDOG mini-cracker !!! alot better bait with a bigger profile . also take a look at TYLURES sunfish , 26 bucks, but well worth it , also their 6" kicker trout is priced the same . might also give the 6" bbz-1 a try and some SEBILE magic swimmers . not alot of choices but these i mentioned are proven baits ...  ;)
