The HD colors are basically a photo of whatever fish we’re trying to imitate that’s been imprinted into the bait. There are six standard ones and six HD (high-definition) colors. The 130 mm size (5.2 inches) is designed to mimic full-size forage. The 110 mm size (4.3 inches) is just right if you’re trying to match normal size forage. The 90 mm size (3.5 inches) is perfect for baby forage. Here they are in no particular order: Gilly. There are many other things that make Gilly the best on the planet. The thing is, though, that’s just the starting point. I’m thinking gizzard shad, bluegill, crappie, panfish, sunfish, and a dozen other small fish that bass eat. True, they catch bass but they aren’t exactly a perfect match-the-hatch lure. And, maybe most important of all, they don’t look real. They have a tail that faces down and up instead of being vertical like a real fish. Most swimbaits are made to look like long and slender forage. I’m calling it a swimbait, but that doesn’t really do it justice. But, this year at ICAST we’re introducing one that really is fundamentally different. Some of them are a little better than others but very few of them are really different, fundamentally different. We all know that there are hundreds - thousands - of plastic swimbaits available to bass anglers.
