Author: Captain Mike Gerry | Posted: 01/17/2010 As the swim bait craze continues to mature, and the technology keeps getting better; I have found that in the hard bait version of swim baits, there is a difference. The differences are subtle but none-the-less they do make a difference to me. The biggest difference maker is the ability to be life like in the water, to accurately mimic the true natural movement of a fish in water. If swim baits are going to catch fish it's movement has to be as life-like as possible and the Tru-Tungsten swim baits are so natural in the water that the human eye has a hard to impossible time determining the difference.

It is kind of nice when an angler in another boat tells his partner, watch this ?Rob is going to pitch his jig up to that lay-down and catch a 5-lber?. It is more amazing when it happens.

That is what happened on Day-1 of the TBF ? Federation Club Championship at Lake Granbury in November. We were having to fish in some dirty/muddy conditions, but the fish were biting for some (you just had to place the bait in front of their nose).
