so on the way to swimbait revolution I was killing time on ebay and ran into this bait for a nice price

on a bait I hadn't ever seen it before I got it in the mail today

 

line through paddle tail swimbait with a led shot belly weight 130mm or 5"  and 47g (1 3/4oz )

 

I have a local pod where darker baits like this will kill

 

will update this review as soon as I can get this bait out on the water. if anyone has this bait or has thrown it before please feel free to comment or add some more info

Looks promising, does the line feed through then sit in that secondary tube there?

Plastic tube on the nose that leads into the belly and treble hook sits in the wake

So the bait is gone lol

But before it got snagged I was able to get in enough cast out to get a good idea of how the bait would preform.

 

Bait is intended for slow roll sub surface. Nice tight wobble with a big kick in the tail

All I had was 15lb fluro but I think 12lb would be better suited for this bait

The led shot that's used is enough to get it to the desired depth and keep it there on a slow steady retrieve.

 

I tried pausing the bait and twitch but nosedived a lot, on a fast retrieve the bait rolls and doesn't swim true.

 

Over all a good bait for $10 bucks

 

Better paddle tail out there but I would of loved more time with the bait
