NJ Tackle Musso Kits
 
Just ordered a few of these today.....I'm not worried about the quality, but was wondering if anyone has swimmed these before....what do they swim like? Looking forward to putting these together and taking them for a swim..... Any advise?

do a good job and let us know how they swim :D

I'll have to check those out someday

"Musso" style swimmers, the originals that is, though having the exact same body shape, were wired two different ways, one had the through wire coming in low on the flat front of the face, this style swam on top kinds like a Danny ( whom by the way D. Musso contends he actually invented) the other had the through wire coming in almost dead center of the flat front of the face and this style swam very deep, kinds like a Conrad.

Hope that helps.

I've built a few of the Musso style kits and they swim well, but fairly deep.
