Dutch Posted September 27 Share Posted September 27 My neighbor and I have been on a decent swim bait bite at Stockton. I make 2 kinds of swim baits and they don’t work as well as the Keitech swing impact fat. I’m looking for something else to use that is more durable. I rarely get more than 2 fish per Keitech. What are you guys using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GotaFish Posted September 27 Members Share Posted September 27 Last month I placed my first order with Tackle Max. I got some Craws, Hellgramites, Fugitive Swimbaits and Max Blitz jig heads. I was very pleased with my purchase as it was apparent the jig heads were specifically designed to be paired with the Craws and Swimbaits. I caught over a dozen smallmouth on a Monkey Milk Swimbait and it is ready to catch a dozen more on my next trip.

Dutch Posted September 27 Author Share Posted September 27 Thanks for the response. I’ve been thinking about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JUNGLE JIM 1 Posted September 28 Share Posted September 28 I've been using the 3.25 inch Rage Swimmer rigged with a small coil keeper with belly weighted head that I pour and paint. They seem more durable than the fat Keitech baits which I also use. First bait is 1/4 oz with blade and second is 1/8 rigged with 1.5" crappie tube.

They work and hold up really well. dpitt and Daryk Campbell Sr 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch Posted October 18 Author Share Posted October 18 I bought some Tackle Max Fugitive swim baits. The first one that I tried got ripped on the second fish. I replaced it and had good success with its replacement. I used Mend-It and fixed it. After using it for 2 trips it is back on the work bench letting the Mend-It repair dry. I wish that Mitch made a 2.8 so I could quit buying Keitechs. nomolites and BilletHead 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
