    Default Storm swim shad


    So I bought a package of these in 3 inch for bass fishing. Turns out the crappie love them. Even the little guys hammered it. Thinking of getting the slightly smaller version. Anyone else use these?

    I have used them before and they work good. In late spring there's a few weeks that crappie like bigger baits and this is a great bait for that time.

    I havnt used them for crappie but they are excellent for white bass and hybrids below a dam.

    Excellent walleye & striped bass lures in the larger sizes, so I don't see why they wouldn't work on crappie in the smaller sizes. Tough baits too! You won't have to worry about wearing them out in several days of fishing. Don't know if they make a 2" or not? Will have to look into this. Thanks!

    I think I will buy some and give it a try. I have seen before but didn't buy them. Know I'm curious to see what happens.

    I bought some to try for Specks and Reds in the salt... Gotta figure they will work on Striper Hybrids as well...

    You sound like someone who needs to go to the salt with me!

    I have used the 3 in here in our big 4 lakes. Push them as bottom hook on spider rig. Like Lowe175 I find they work best late spring and later in fall when they get to feeding on lather shad. Have not tried the smaller sizes but keep telling myself to buy some. Wish they offered more color's.
