Yes I have hype baits more then likely I have or had every bait out there. The DDs were caught on the UFOs before the hype. Its a great bait along with all the other hype baits as of today. I caught a ton of fish up to 8 pounds on the MrZorba baits should it be a hype bait? What I was trying to say is dont get caught up in the hype, there are many other available baits out there that can be had and caught fish. Get those baits for now and believe me the hype will change. A good swimbaiter should be able to catch a fish on any bait not just a hype bait. There is no difference between a hype glide or gill bait compared to a non hype glide or gill bait.

I don’t think anybody is worried about the hype baits. I just posed it as a question because I thought of it while bored at work. I have some UFOs that I’ll never let go of because they’re a confidence bait for me, same with Deps 250s and some other pretty standard stuff. Was more or less just a speculative question and kinda guess at the swimbait market. This is a discussion forum after all isn’t it?

Loudsplashbassn_ Posted June 17, 2021 Report Share Posted June 17, 2021 If illude keeps doing the random drops like they been then HOPEFULLY the hype factor will were down . but seems like ufo have been in high demand lately. Being still fairly new to the swimbait game id love to know when some of these baits became"hype" and or why. seems like not to many even leave the package nowadays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First trip with it using the medium tail was lame, bait just rolls, no tail kick, goes about 1-2” under the surface. going to try the other two tails, and maybe some weighted hooks or heavier hooks Jon P 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony_x18 Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 @Bassjak_'s bait and I think WCZ is working on something new that will draw a lot of interest. chevro1et and Kyle1387 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good call. He already caught an 18+ so that adds some street cred. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
