I haven't swam these..my test pilots that are like these on a slow retrieve tend to swim like a reg swimmer only deep... When you increase your retrieve they break out and sweep back and forth.. You can only see this when there in close and have to imagine whats going on out there.. 2 cranks and there down .. 1 problem is they don't cast real well . Sometimes on the spin belly hook grabs the line and comes in like that .. I thought a little weight in arse will cure that but would effect the action too much.. I think it might be best to leave it alone and live with a belly snag now and then for the sake of the coool action ..
