Recently fished Decade, and was fortunate to limit twice under a cork. My hands are killing me, and would love to catch on swimbaits. I saw a few guys throwing them. I tried the chartreuse tsunami 3" with little luck. One guy said he had a 3" LSU color swimbait made by tsunami, and was catching fish. I searched and have looked all over, but cannot find that bait. Any help would be greatly appreciated. What is the best brand to fish? Who makes the LSU color? Thanks, and Geaux Tigers!!

Storm Minnow, bunker color with tail dipped in chartreuse dye. Absolutely hammered them two years ago on these and haven't went back.

Much more fun than a cork IMO.

Rehage7 -

The swim baits that you are referencing are produced by H&H Lures. They are called "The Usual Suspects" - 3" Swagger Tail Shads and can be purchased online at the link below or at Academy. The Bunker, LSU, Glow/Chartreuse colors are excellent. Hope this helps?

No problem at all. My favorite is the Bunker color. The Cock of the Walk color is great to. It's like the Chicken on the Chain color by other brands. The H&H's seem to last longer the the rest!

and they are made in BR

Do you guys still use the good old sassy shad? I fish mostly freshwater and when the hybrids are on we will use the 4" storm wildeye swimshad and 4" sassy shad on 1/2 to 1 oz triangular jig heads. I find the difference in action will sometimes get them going when the action dies on one bait or the other.
