    I own most of Mike's resin baits and absolutely love them all! He puts a lot of thought into each and every one of them. The ABS ones are very good for beginners that want to get into swimbaiting. His bullshads (resin ones anyways) are designed to be burned right under the surface with your rod tip like 1in above the surface then you can give very short pauses or breaks in your retrieve.

    already have caught a 30# Blue Cat off of these (going to try to get a 60#+ next year). czcams.com/users/postUgkxzXmlErSqVAEGWFEKO530BvTqFDw53QW3 Definitely very strong, and sharp. Additionally, the gap is wide enough to actually hook a fish (not always the case with circle hooks). I purchased the 8/0, but probably should have got the 9/0 (they seem slightly smaller than other 8/0 hooks). Additionally, having the point in-line helps if you drift fish. I have yet to get a serious snag with one of these hooks.

    I have the bull Shad’s, and gills and they stand up to northern and musky in Wisconsin, not the craziest lures, the paint does chip but they do last, they’re extremely practical baits which is prolly one of catch co.’s better collabs in general. Their owner Ross Gordon hit a home run with that one. I tell him that all the time when I run into him

    Lunker Largies (obviously). But, I’ve also used it for inland saltwater fishing and caught over-slot red, flounder, and speckled trout. Even hooked (but not landed) some huge snook! Once, I hooked a small-ish tarpon on one, but didn’t check my line for freys…
    Anyway: Solid bait that’s great for a lot of different waters and target species!

    Someone has probably already said this but I think it would be pretty cool if you did a visual tier list so that we can see where the new lures rank compared to ones you’ve previously reviewed. Right now it probably wouldn’t look like much but I just think it would be cool to see a huge tier list in the future with a bunch of baits on it.

    i love these swimbaits, and they come with fantastic hooks that give you a great hookup ratio. the only downside is that the bristle tail can sometimes come off after a few fish, which ironically makes the swimbait kick harder. its still kind of disappointing, so i add extra glue or put a little jb weld on it to keep the tail in place.
