---they're OK. Tsunami have a good range. In fact my first shore-based salmon on a lure came on one. The downside is...the weight is molded into the lure, so you need a decent variety of lures/weights to meet different conditions, as opposed to just switching jigheads and keeping the same tail(s).

 

The other problem is that if something toothy damages your swimbait, you have to replace the whole lure, rather than just the tail. They catch fish, but I tend to use them only when the fish are hitting everything, so I'm not burning up my better softies.

storm shads, tsunami, bozo's and the list goes on.

depends on what your using them for but under the right applications they work great, even better than conventional soft plastics at times.

caught plenty of jewies over east on the storms and tsunami range (mullaz to you westies)
