Underrated Swimbaits

Completely agree on the Gan Craft 178s and 230s. They often get overlooked. I have plenty of other glide baits in my box that I really like, but my GCs have easily out-fished most of them 3:1. My two favorites are the 178 SS in perch (gets bit any time of day) and the 230 F in visible gold ayu (great for low light conditions).

smaller baits but i love the mission fish and the 3:16 money minnow.  If we're looking at hard baits the fish arrow baby jack is by far my favorite wake bait for numbers, smashed a few in the 6-8 lb range with it too!

 

 

sleeper bait! i have a couple. Deadly

Real Prey Alewife....I don't think he makes it anymore but I crush on it.

 

Yes he still makes it. And yes, its a very underrated bait. The SG 8" glide, MCL glide gill, and to an extent, the 8" BBZ and 9" soft tool. Lots of underrated baits here in the NE because there are still too many people limiting themselves to baits they think are small enough or will get bit consistently. This is swimbaiting...we arent doing it to get bit consistently.
