Hello everyone I'm new to swimbait fishing and I was told that this was a good place that I can get help. If I'm not posting in the right place please let me know. I'm here in Florida and I want to get my new PB and I have seen the best way to do it is on big swimbaits. My current record is 7lbs not small but not the biggest either. I am also a soft plastic bait maker as well also do alot of saltwater fishing...... anyways back to the point I have 0 experience when it comes to swimbaits along with 0 confidence. So I was wondering what is the best way to start I would like to get a decent setup do I have been looking at a shimano tranx 300 but I'm not sure about the rod yet I was looking to throw 20lb fluorocarbon line unless I'm told otherwise on here. So what are y'alls suggestions on beginner baits that will get me bites and a decent rod to get as well. A bait that I do make is a 4inch paddletail swimbait along with a 6inch and the 6inch bait takes a 10/0 owner beast. The picture I have added is my 6inch bait.

So I have 2 OG Deps 175 SS and one of them was not swimming correctly. Basically dead action unless I burn it back. So I weighed it compared to my other one that swims right. Well the good one weighs 84 grams and the bad one is 76g! So pretty big difference. So do I just get new weights? Add tungsten putty? How do you get old weights out? Help please haha!
