Also do they have good action and are they better then the yum pulse swimbait?

I haven't used them yet, still using keitechs.  People love them and I'll try them soon, read these if you haven't.

Thank you!

Yes, they're great. I use them more or less interchangeably with Keitech fat swing impact and the Biospawn exoswim.

I catch just about as well on a pulse as a swim jig trailer as I do with a rage swimmer.

 

I wouldn't say one was better so much as they have slightly different actions that are equally good at what they do when you need that kind of action.

 

The pulse is poured with slightly stiffer plastic, you see (but not as stiff as a 6th Sense swimbait).

 

I like the both better than the swing impact.

I like the rage swimmer and I seem to get 3-4 fish out of them if I super glue them to the jig head 

 

 

I’ve been liking the divine swimmers too from 6th sense either used as search bait or in swim jig.  They have a nice stiff tail and so far northern pike tested to take multiples off 

I used the rage swimmers for a few years, and have switched to the Berkley power swimmers for the last couple years. Very similar action, but they seem to hold up much better. I’ve caught multiple large pike on one bait before it gets ripped up much.

Who makes the pulse? 

Yum.

I use all three of those brands and they all work very well. I do have a good bit more of the rage swimmers due to being readily available locally. You can confidently fish all of them.

I agree. I had a Power Swimmer for a trailer on a swim jig and caught 8 bass and its still fine. I do like the rage swimmers color selection better though. 

Gave away all my Keitech.

They are for sure more durable then Fat Impacts and are stiffer with less action at a given speed. I use them both for different applications.  

Way more durable than keitech so I use them a lot for smallies. They are very similar in their action too. 

they are a nice bait, but i've switched over to the berkley power swimmer. amazing durability with nice action in the water

They are fairly durable, swim good at slow speeds and are easily accessible and they get bit. I use them mostly now because every time I end up at a wall mart they have them and I grab a few for cheap money.

Yeah I did ?

 

You ever try a Rage Swimmer on a light weighted hook?

 

I fish em like a Fluke 

I like the Rage Swimmer as well as Keitech's.

 

Keitech's, IMO, have a little more action/kick to them. The Rage Swimmers are definitely more durable, tho.

 

But Strike King needs to step their game up when it comes to colors. The Rage Swimmer comes in 11 colors. Keitech's come in over 50 colors!

I actually prefer the rage swimmer's over the keitechs but they are both good it's personal preference. I just brached off to buying some megabass spark shads heard good things about those as well.

Keitechs significantly outperform the others in my experience when the bite is neutral to off, but since they can be 1-2 fish per bait and nearly a buck apiece I gladly use Rage when the bite is on for the increased durability. Those Berkleys sounds interesting and I may have to give them a shot.

Fishing it as a single swimbait I'd pick the Keitech first.  On a A rig where I don't think the action matters as much the Rage swimmer is a good option.

Yeah, they're strong. I have seen them carry fish all the way to the boat!  Sorry.

Try the Lake Champlain Lures Swimbait.  You'll thank me after.
