Hi Bassresource,

 

I was wondering if there is any brand in US that sells this type of swimbait ( http://www.10ftu.com/product/lure/hb_babu2/gazou/IMG_3659.jpg). I want something that has the shape of the swimbait similar to the keitech, that is less than 3/4 oz, and is pre rigged in that fashion. I now about the MB Magdrafts, and Fish Arrow Vivid Cruise, but is there another brand?

 

Thanks,

There's a guy with a company called evolution jigheads and they have the body harness style you are looking for!

Thanks! I wish they made a 5 inch paddle tail though :/ Do they ship to the states?

IAY,

  Have you tried Optimum Baby Line-Throughs?  They are probably heavier than you are looking for, but the shape is similar.....and the action is fantastic.

 I believe so!

This was what came to mind when I saw the bait as well. Optimum makes a line through with a hook on top and one with the hook on bottom, both in a variety of sizes and colors and inexpensive. I catch tons of fish on the BLTs every year since I first tried them. 

With that style of swimbait I would not go with that kind of harness. I would much rather use a line thru like a Rago BV or an Osprey. The line thru allows the bait to slide up the line taking away leverage from the fish. Both are straight up fish catchers.
