Fogy bubble blade vs the "normal" blades and the Tremor series

[Rocky998]

I'm hoping to get some stuff from Siebert Outdoors, but I'm on a tight budget so I want to make sure that what I'm getting counts.

I'm well assured it's all quality products, I'd just like to know the difference between some things.

 

I see that on his site he only has one color option for the bubble blade but then he has other colors for the "normal" blades and Tremor blades. 

I always hear that the bubble blade is the best, but what about the Tremor bladed jig?

I'm asking because I'm hoping I can have a gold-colored one for stained and muddy water fishing, as well as for red drum as they like the color gold and I feel like it would be a "new" presentation for them that they haven't seen.

 

So what are the differences between these 3 blades exactly?

 

 

(PS: I know I've recently been asking a lot of questions in here, so I apologize. I just want to so the best I can with the limited resources I've got)

Hello Rocky998  

 

The blade hole I sell very few of.  This blade usually stays a little deeper.   The original blade with no holes in my opinion give the most erratic action of the 3 and runs a little higher in the water column.  The pro blade that is on the fogy and Tremor is a good balance of both.  It stays a little deeper and has a good action to it.  I hope that helps.

Oh wow, thank you for replying! 

 

So out of the 3, you'd recommend the original fogy for the best action rather than the bubble blade, then?

Or should I do the tremor for the best of two worlds?

I'm looking to mostly use paddletails on the back for red drum and bass

The Tremor is not as erratic as the Fogy.  The football head of the Fogy gives it a very erratic action. 

 

I sell very few bubble blades in the Fogy.  The standard blade is by far a better seller.

I'm sure there are lots of different opinions and a lot depends on how you like to fish a bladed jig, but if I could only have one from siebert it would be the original fogy.  That blade and head combo with a straight tail trailer has VERY erratic action.  During a steady retrieve, give the reel handle a quick pump for half a crank and it jukes sideways a few inches.  That can get the same type of reaction strike as when you rip it out of weeds, but it can be done anywhere.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but what does the bubble blade do that the standard blade doesn’t? Thanks!

That doesn’t say what the bubble blades purpose is, unless my reading comprehension has failed me.
