BBZ-1 Shad
Hopefully this hasn't been discussed already, I haven't posted for quite a while(love the new set up for the site btw) but I did a search and nothing came up.
I just ordered the slow sinker BBZ-1 Shad Slow Sinker Blue Back, and it finally came today. Looks great, runs great, though I think I would have been alittle better off getting the fast sinker for the applications I would like to use it for. Has anyone else tried these yet? What did you think? What patterns and scenarios do you like to use them in?

We ordered the lavender shad in slow sinking. Hasn't come in yet. We'll be using it for musky as well as bass. I believe the fast sinker sinks at 1ft/sec and the slow sinks 1ft/4sec. (don't quote me on this cause I'm not 100% sure) I can't wait to get it and try it out.

Well i baught the herring. First place don't look at swimbaits as you do crankbaits. Second remebor to always count down your depth of choice before retrieving. On the retrieve always go slowly at that depth of choice. Yes you can burn a swimbait. But it will swim out of the depth of choice. Burning is best when there biting on the surface. This goes for all sinking mechanical swimbaits. Even there bigger cousins
