Subsurface. I've had to play with the design to get them to dart horizontally -- the water resistance against the hooks causes them to dip down when twitched so I had to angle the lip to cancel it out.

The larger design gets a lot of hits with a slow & steady retrieve then pause/twitch/pause.

I really enjoy(ed) fishing the smaller one, it walked/glided very well and stayed level even in current. I just twitch-retrieved it at a good clip and it got smacked around.
