Captain Chaos II Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Alright....gonna get one of them at the BPS Classic this weekend. If you could pick one....which small "swimbait" do you like? + which color? Thanks Quote
Super User KYntucky Warmouth Posted February 27, 2009 Super User Posted February 27, 2009 I am wanting to get a Tru Tungsten Bluegill. Never fished any of them but I have a friend that has three of the Tru Tungsten and they look great in the water Quote
dman Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 for what its worth: I have one of each.....The Sebile is the only one i've used....It doesnt sink fast enough for me, didnt catch anything and definately gave it a fair chance = looked good in the water though.... The quality of the Spro is great but i think the bait is going to be to big for the northeast fish here. I think the quality of the Tru tungsten is poor but i like the size of this bait the best. I also like that it has 2 hooks compared to 1 on the bigger Spro...I wish these were better quality Having said that, throw the Spro Quote
tritz18 Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 Tru Tungsten bluegill color. I have one of these and they are amazing in the water, they don't weigh alot so you don't need a special rod just use a cranking rod. I love mine, to tell you the truth I haven't been able to fish it but so far I really think it will be a great bait. Quote
SoFl-native Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 bbz vs TT is a good comparison. The sebile is kind of a different bait. It is a swim bait but really different then the other two. It acts more like a jerk bait.....and doesnt move nearly as much water as the other two. Pick up a Sebile anyway.....but not a good comparison. Between the BBZ and the TT.....that is tough. BBZ is bigger, and is a terrific wake bait (floater). The TT is more versatile though...with the weight adding sustem. If i had to do one......i guess the TT. Because it can do more. Plus two hooks vs one on the BBZ. Tough choice. Quote

I've caught bass (smallmouth and largemouth) on king shads which are about the same size and I know a bunch of guys that catch smallies on the susquehanna using swimbaits up to 5, and occasionally 6 inches.

csizzle Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 I have both the TT and the BBZ. I much prefer the BBZ. I personally think the TT is very poorly crafted and the 3 baits in one is really a joke. Even with both balls in the sinking version, it sinks incredibly slow. Plus, I will probably never change out the balls again because their pin system is terrible. I haven't used the Sebile, but I have heard good things about it so I would pick up either the BBz, the Sebile, or both. Quote
-nick- Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 TT 4" Bluegill. I have both btw and prefer the TT over the BBZ shad. Quote
