Best big swimbait

[IndianaFinesse]

What is yours guys favorite big swimbait under 1.5 oz. , because my heaviest rod is a medium heavy, and under twenty dollars?

With that set-up I would try the Keitech Swing Impact Fat 5.8" with a belly weighted hook. Or the hollow belly baits like Basstrix up to the 6" size. The SPRO baby rat would work too.

Spro BBZ1 Shad would be a good option. I personally haven't used one, but it fits your criteria and seems to have a lot of good reviews.

Savage Gear Shine Glide 5.25" would be another good option.

I'd skip the BBZ1 and just get a 5" Bullshad. Swaver, shine glide, or gantrel jr would be other good choices.

S Waver 168 is the only one that fits in the description for me. I like the bigger Shine Glide, not as big a fan of the smaller one. 

The Savage Gear 6" Line Thru would be my choice for a soft bait.

I would also vote Savage gear line thru trout 6" or a bigger kietech

Spend $49.00 on a BPS Graphite series Musky rod (7'6"H) and open your options instead of restricting yourself to what you can throw.  Think about t this way, most swimbaits are going to cost you $15-30 each.  If you're looking to fish lures in that catagory what's $50 for a new rod that can actually handle the baits your looking to fish as opposed to maxing out the rod you have right now which may be overpowered with the baits you choose to try and fish. Just my opinion though.

Thanks for all of the help guys!  Although I would love to purchase a dedicated swimbait rod, I am only planning on buying one swimbait to start out and if I decide to go all in to swimbait fishing I will probably buy a swimbait rod.

I say buy swimbait rod eversince i got the big bait bug i have caught more big fish in a single year then i have my whole life. If you have the  patience and put in the work it will make you a better fisherman and understading big fish behaver. Also dont limit your self to just bass with swimbaits. I fish with gaint swimbaits for trout and yesterday i hook into my personal best didnt get it in. But ive caught alot of 18 to 21 inch trout but this thing was a monster compare to those ones ive caught before
