More Jointed Swimmers
 
Ive been messing with these for a little while. it seems the less of a angle they swim better to an extent.

this one has a plastic diving lip. crank bait style

Freshwater or saltwater?
That first one looks good
If you are unhappy with the action, try putting your line tie a little below center on the first one (and maybe try above center on the slant face).

the first two swim good. the last one sucks. i will be using them in fresh water lakes...the pics of them in the pool should be a video...

The last likely wants to roll. Maybe try a chin weight and a higher line tie?
