I've had "the original" before the hype started, (the ones the pros use). They are much better than the ones you can get now. But they only produce rarely. I have tried various other type brands, with bad results. I knew this style of bait must work with the action it gives underwater. I got a KaRu VibraShock one day, and they are the only style bait in my bag. KaRu fixed the problem, that all the other brands missed. The blade hits the jig head, giving the fish to key in on the head with improves the hood ups. KaRu also has the best color selection, and he can make the color to fit your needs (no other company I have found is that loyal to the customers). Just think out of the box, you can create different looks to them, that the fish and fisherman has never seen . God Bless!
