This looks like a sweet deal. (Berkley hollow body swimbaits sell for $3 each.)

Hollow body swimbaits seem to wobble more than solid body when used with a weighted hook. :-k

With all of the different "Swim Bait" styles coming out, it is hard to know what to buy. I like the hollow body concept, mostly because it keeps the wait down to a manageable level.

If you try these, let me know how they swim for you.

I'll bet it does. I see how they have that style of bait, chatterbait, called a chatterstick now. It is nothing but the chatterbait blade attached to a stick bait.

I hope to make up some of that style this winter with components I buy on line.

alot of chatterbait people do that to give it a bigger profile! i wouldnt waste a swimbait on a chatterbait though, i'd just put a fluke style soft jerkbait on it. Its cheaper and the swimming profile on the swimbait swims like its was made to swim!
