SWIM BAITS

[captmac]

Has any one tried any swim baits on our puddle ? When and where would you use them? Hve a buddy who is completly rabid over them and was wondering is the expensive dearlings were worth it here

Depends on what you call swimbaits. The hard plastic or wood 50$ a pop models? No.

But I have used the Storm Swimshad in the 4" or 5",

and really like a 4.5 Lunker City Shaker on a 1/2 0r 5/8 ounce jig head swam in the same areas you'd use a grub. Did well this spring on Beaver and Table Rock for smallies with this one in Rainbow Trout color.

Bill Babler wrote about them earlier this spring, I believe. You might search the board. If I remember right, we did catch some nice fish with them.
