I have used both the 9" Tsunami And 9" Storm with great success.
Couple of points: They are heavy (about 6.5 oz) so cast with care. I use them in places with very decent current running (ie: any place you might think of using a 4 oz or bigger bucktail). They do produce; all last fall when the large bunker and shad were the bait, the 9" plastics were the ticket. Pearl Shad & Bunker patterns seemed to be the best. Tsunami's seem to be more durable, but the Storm has a profile that looks more like a bunker.

I'd rather be fishing!

storm shad

I would consider cutting off the back hook. Using them in the canal the tail hung up on that hook more often than knot.

A bottomless pit of bum information/ Death makes memories of us all...
