Brush Hog lures.

While at Gander last night I picked up a package of the 6 inch Brush Hogs, watermellon green/red flake. They are actually the Gander Mountain version of the Brush Hog. I've never used this particular style of softbait. I have one question. I've noticed looking at this type bait that the two front "loop legs" I'll call them, are attached at both ends to the body I'm surprised they are not small swimming legs. Or are they? Am I supposed to seperate the end of the loop from the body to give that little leg some swimming action? One other thing I thought of. After the front end of these baits get torn up from use, I'd bet the back section would make a great trailer for a larger jig.
