jpb2187 Posted May 22, 2017 Posted May 22, 2017 Are you guys mainly throwing the original swing impacts, or the FATs?
evilcatfish Posted May 22, 2017 Posted May 22, 2017 Most everybody I know throws the Fats, but regular still works
top_dollar Posted May 23, 2017 Posted May 23, 2017 They have different actions. The si fats have more kick in the tail and catch more water. This results in not only the tail to kick back and forth, but the belly gets a rocking motion moving the entire bait. Then regular ones move with little motion in the body of the bait but the tail still swings. The regular ones can be fished like a small finesse worm as well as a swimbait. Long story short, fats have more action, and they both work well. Carl W, MGP, m&m and 4 others 7

She likes it because I'm way too fat to have ANY overall action and I certainly don't shimmy ... when falling or not. magicwormman, dtrs5kprs, shark bait and 3 others 6
