Deep diving swimmers??
What do you folks use as deep diving swimmers?
Also, I was looking at the Gapen and night stalker jointed swimmers from (Cape Cod tackle), does anyone know if these are sinking or floating? I would think that the night stalker does not float as it is 4+ oz.

Salmo makes a lure called a Giant Chubby. Might be of some interest if you need a lure that gets down deep.Alot of play on words here  |

Nib's right on about a bottle plug. I've taken hundreds of bass in the Canal at night on them. Save the metal lips for the last hour or so of the tide. If you're not getting deep enough with a bottle swimmer, go with a Storm or Tsunami (don't like the hooks, tho).
