If I remember right I read something about the first bikini swimbait made about it breaking or something like that.I`m wondering if any of you guys have any info about the bait ,I`m not sure and know he didn`t make them for too long of a time frame like most of his baits.I`ve had one fish hit this but no hookup,also a couple of years ago in the hodag on pelican had a bunch of follows throwing this,one that was 10mins before the tourny ended that might of won me a ranger.

I would suggest you not fish this lure for musky. I tried unsuccessfully for months to get the problems worked out with the manufacturer and in the end gave up. I replaced at least 200 of them and threw out 750.............a hard lesson learned and a very expensive one. Some are being sold against my permission on ebay and I would suggest you avoid them.

What was the issue with these? I still have 2 Firetigers and 2 suckers in my tackle box. They have limited use so far, so I haven't noticed the flaws yet.

Unfortunately, Jed, I came to that conclusion as well. They're GREAT for pike and bass, though!
