Moeny Minnow not swiming right

[Ben Miller]

Just started using the Money Minnow and have torn up the bass rigged Texas rigged.  Love the color options and looks but having problem with them swimming correctly on Alabama Rigs.  I've tried the 3.5" money minnows on the sides with a 5" trailer on a yumbrella flash mob jr-willow blade using the correct sized yum jig heads and they don't have much action.  I've also tried the 2.5" money minnows on a regular yumbrella 5 wire.  They do the same.  Any help would be appreciated.

Try different swimbaits.

That was my experience with money minnow. That is why I stopped buying them. So many better options ?

Thanks Croakhunter and Shimmy.  What are your recommendations on another plastic for an Alabama rig?  Do you think it's possible that Money Minnows swim better on weighted weedless hooks than Jig heads on an Alabama rig?  I'm just starting to throw an Umbrella rig.
