Yup, the buggers work like nobody's business but they're as ugly as home-made shoes -

I think the emphasis is function over form and loading them with a little lead slug in the tail helps, too -

Yeah, Mark's business address is 'on the rocks' - which is where I saw him a coupla weeks ago - and outside of Sam's in Middletown, the other place you can usually get them is out of the fish tote in Mark's trunk

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.
