I have been trying the Reaction Skinny Dippers lately but think I must be doing something wrong. I cant seem to make them run true, They always seem to wobble side to side. I am using Owner swim bait hooks with an 1/8th oz weight. From what I have read they work best when they run straight. Oh and how fast do you all retrieve them, line size, and GPS cordinates to your best spots. LOL

They are supposed to wobble...every soft swimbait I've thrown wobbles and they all catch fish. Seems to me your doing it right. I throw mine with 50lb braid because I'm always throwing it in thick stuff
I can backlash toilet paper.

If by wobble, you mean they are rolling over on their side, just slow down. you need a slow steady retrieve.
make sure the bottom of the hook is lined up straight with the top also.
good luck

The Keitek (sp.) swing impact version has a wide wag of the tail with a quiet head. You can order from popular online tackle sites.
