HydraYak Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 Anyone love the Live Target Swimbaits? I've had great luck on them here in the south east for bass and striper. Quote
JediAmoeba Posted February 14, 2020 Posted February 14, 2020 They are just too stiff. I have tried boiling them and cutting slits in them to get better action but they just dont do anything for me or the fish. Quote
Finessegenics Posted February 15, 2020 Posted February 15, 2020 I bought the 1/2 oz goby ones this winter. They look pretty darn realistic and the paddletail seems to have decent action so I hope it works out for me. If it does I think I’ll buy the 1oz 4.5 inch ones. I also saw the swimbait Suckers on sale at cabela’s and I’m tempted to buy them. Look like they would slay the pike and musky here, probably the bigger smallmouth and walleye too. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted February 15, 2020 Global Moderator Posted February 15, 2020 I had a couple and they were awful. Laid over on their side no matter how slow I reeled and so stiff the tails barely moved. They look amazing and performed poorly, which is on par with everything else I've ever bought from LiveTarget. 4 Quote
Super User FishTank Posted February 16, 2020 Super User Posted February 16, 2020 I have tried a couple of their lures and the smaller swimbaits and not luck on any of them. I can't say why but they just have not produced at all. Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted February 16, 2020 Posted February 16, 2020 I bought a few and they were trash! Zero action and never got a sniff on them. Quote
txchaser Posted February 17, 2020 Posted February 17, 2020 I got a 3" bluegill swimbait (top hook) as a gift so I felt obliged to catch at least one fish on it. I was upside suprised - I've caught enough hefty fish across different lakes that I bought more of them. For some reason the orange belly has been consistently better than the yellow, regardless of location. There's probably better options for nearly every other bait they make though. Quote
