H2O means water downed products , save your money for the good stuff . I would think it depends on the action the angler gives the lure. I also don't know if fish care how much I spend on my tackle, then again I haven't gone a bass to tell me.

Most of their H2O products are as good as anything near the same price, so don't hesitate. Except line, I had them spool a reel with 12# H2O mono line once, and it snapped repeatedly and very easily (worst was a 2lb fish "flopped" while I was getting ready to get it to remove my crankbait and snapped the line I was holding onto at the time... fish=1 line=0. Lost a couple of lures on casts also, that line was brittle! I just noticed the other day all their lines are on "clearance", so maybe they are getting a new maker onboard for better quality, but my only experience with their line so far was very negative. Everything else I've liked.

I have used some of there lures for hybrids and stripers. They have held up extremely well. If they can take the abuse of a striper than they can handle LMB easy. Their Rain/Wind suit is awesome.

I use the h2o hollow body frogs and have had great success with them. Smaller in size for the body of waters I fish. My best two fish came off of them including my PB

I received as a Christmas Gift the assorted "Swim Baits" & tried a couple in the pool. They swim/work great to my surprise. Very life like. The thing I HATE though is are a Chinese product. I've been trying hard in the last few yrs to buy only USA made.

I was looking at that but didn't want to spend a bunch on something that was terrible.

Ive just spooled my mettle with H20 Flouro. Its definitely better than Berkeley Vanish. Vanish is trash honestly if someone says its good hasn't used another fluoro .and so is h20 express line "mono and fluoro" also its more expensive for less line! Line is h20s only bad product. As for everything else its great! I love the mettle reel wish they made a highspeed in the mettle.
