Suggestions for a Plastic Solid Body Swim Bait
Suggestions for a Plastic Solid Body Swim Bait
For a number of years I've used Lunker City Shakers for my primary plastic soft solid body swim bait. Use them on Kalin jig heads.
Was perusing swim baits at my local sporting goods store and started wondering are there others that I should try. Prefer a swim bait in the 5" range.
Or, am I just better off to use a hollow body swim bait on a jig head as I already have a good supply of Shadalicious and Castic swim baits?
Thanks!

Re: Suggestions for a Plastic Solid Body Swim Bait
I haven't fished any of the above mentioned swimbaits but I really like the I like the Reaction Innovations Skinny Dipper in the houdini color. With a Swim X Screw Lock Swimbait Hook. I tried the hollow bodied money minnow and it tore up too easily for me.
Thanks for the epiphany captain obvious

The LFT magic swimmers in 4.5" & 5.5" on either a Blade Runner Spintrix / weedless swimbait head depending on cover. The Optimum Double Diamond baits are excellent as well on either Owner Beast hooks or jig heads.
I swear I had 500+ posts, I swear it!

+1 for the keitech fat impacts there's also some good reviews on the roboworm ez-shad... very tempting to tryNJ Jigman wrote:keitech fat impacts, come in 3.8 and 4.8. great action, only neg is no eyes. will out perform all cheaper brands

get the ezshad by roboworm...best deal I have found and they work! keitechs are nice too although I prefer to use the smaller size for trailers
stress-what happens between fishing trips
Re: Suggestions for a Plastic Solid Body Swim Bait
i mentioned the fat impacts before but ecudaniel reminded me about the regular/skinny impacts. they are great by themselves but i use them as a swim jig, spinnerbait and buzzbait trailer as well. use the 3 and 4 inch most

My fishing buddy Joe at Realprey just released a 5" shad.

The Keitech Fat Swing Impact is the only softbody I use anymore.
