Swimbaits

Swimbaits are soft baits that are simply cranked in. Most of them have a paddle tail that swings out to the sides due to the water pressure when retrieved. Good swimbaits also show a wobbling action. Flanking is the name given to this action, in which the entire body of the softbait turns alternately from one side to the other.Especially lures with a lot of glitter or strong color contrast let their flanks flash seductively.
