Considerations & Trade-offs
- The action is described as subtle, so it may be less suited to anglers looking for a more aggressive presentation.
- Performance is tied to jighead or dropshot use, which narrows how this bait is typically presented.
- Size matters here: the 3.75" version is aimed at smaller species and the 7" version at larger fish, so choosing the wrong size could limit results.
- Pack counts vary by size, so the value and on-water supply differ depending on which version you buy.
