Comments: Great as a jig trailer, and I haven't found a catch rate any better or worse than my Keitecs. Its tougher than nails, yet has good action- even on a 1/4 oz. swim jig. You can't beat them for the price. I'm cutting down the 4.3 for reference.

Comments: I received a pack of these from a rep to test them out. Needless to say if you know what a keitech fat impact is, this won't really wow you. However I will say that the action is decent but main thing is it's super durable. If I had to pick keitech knockoffs, id say this is the best so far and even better than the rage swimmer. The rage swimmer has barely anymore action than this Berkley and also less durable. Probably wouldn't use this unweighted or just on a jig head, but behind a swim jig it lasts multiple fish, wobbles just enough, and bulks up the profile that fish seem to like it. And it could just be me but the powerbait scent does seem to make fish hold on a tad longer maybe 1-2 seconds, enough that even a delayed hook set will still connect. Overall I'd stick to keitech but when there's a lot of dinks around stealing tails or I'm flying through too many keitechs on small bass or even pike, I'll have a spare pack of these
