Yes, originally designed by Florida fishermen. I also started using Gravity tails last season which are different... but still effective. Like all plastic lures soft plastics come in different formulas which will work differently. Different shapes, jig heads, and plastic formulas affect sink rates. I'm finding this is the critical element in boulder field use. Every boulder field is different so there is a substantial learning curve for correct combination to use in different areas. But this is what I love - always keep learning.
