Hey all, what's your favorite paddle tail or kick tail soft swim bait and why? Like a BassTrix or SK Shadalicious shad type soft swimbait. From what I've heard they can be inconsistent and "not swim" out of the package.
thanks!

I guess you are talking hollowbellys. I like the Smashtech is has lots of plastic upfront for the screw lock, they last a good while and they work.

Keitec and Rage Swimmers. The rage swimmer works better if you are going to run it faster. As it doesn't roll. But I have caught multiple big fish on both!

Still have a bunch of the older Berkeley Powerbait hollowbellies I bought on clearance at Academy years ago for like $.88 a pack! Ibelieve they started making them again too.
