22nd Century Triple Trout

Awesome life-like action and I have caught tons of big fish on them. Use 6" for smaller waters. 7", 8" and 10" for big water and big fish.

It's hard to beat the Smashtech hard swimbaits for the money., Not to mention they're hand painted right here in Texas by a State Game Warden who is as good as they come. The floating bluegill can get some ISANE blowups and the glide baits are a blast to learn to fish.

Trick shad/ Shad glides from Bull shad and DRT Klash 9/ TK are the only glides you need if you are serious about it.

Thanks to all that answered, I have 5 or 6 different soft swimbait types. Hard or glide baits are what I’m looking for, I’ll check into those named.

Take a look at Hill Country Swimbaits. Hand made near San Antonio. The Guad Glide is a large bait but deadly AF. The Medina glide is smaller and just as sweet.

I didn't know that Keitech fat impacts were hard baits.

How much $$$ do you want to spend is the real question? For cheaper stuff the spro, and chad shad are pretty good. I like the ninja twitchn glide but most of the time im throwing an hph gizzard.
