Lure review

I dont normally do this, but I couldnt keep this one the bag any longer.

I was given this plug for testing around 3-4 weeks ago by Don from Kings Cove, one of a handful he had in the shop. We threw it out back and it had some nice action, swimming on top, more like a Danny plug than anything else. A quick set and it darts under surface for a wide thumping swim. Real nice I thought..
And its weighty at 2-1/4oz, this swimmer throws better than my old favorite, the Megabait JB150. Its also slightly weighted in the lip and you'll notice the steep angle of it, helping keep it on top. Also the front loop is under the nose, pulling the back in the air on retrieve.
On its first trial it had bass whacking it consistantly like no other lure Ive ever used Not your usual hit and tug but serious smash and grab runs. Bone jarring hits!! But I figured they were just really hungry But on every trip since this swimmer has evoked some of the most excited hits on plastic Ive ever had, culminating on Tuesday with 25lb bass literally shooting off bottom and somersaulting through the air in attempts to nab this guy
This swimmer has THE BEST action Ive ever used. I dont know what its called or how much they are but Dons got some more coming through soon.
Again, its not my style to go round promoting stuff, but this things too good
