I cast the jointed ones a lot, and think that they are the most under-rated surface lures that there is. I reel them in just slow enough to get that "clacking" noise going.
Not hard to cast or retrieve.

A jointed 10" believer is my go-to bait when the water is really dark or murky. The muskies seem to be able to find this slow large noisy presentaiton at night pretty well too. The topwater use of this bait is definately a great presentation.
I throw a straight 10" believer in the weeds and stumps a bunch too. The bait just wont get snagged when fishing downed trees and stumps...the stuff it comes through amazes me all the time.
The bait works great with a 1/4 ounce bell sinker on the front hook hanger. Seems like just a bit extra weight keeps the nose down while snaking the bait throught the weeds.
Any bait good enough for Doug Johnson is good enough for me!

The jointed 10 inch Believer is great for casting, especially late at night just walking it slowly across the surface.

A bit off topic I know, but I spent some time throwing(casting) the new 13" jointed Believer last week and WOW, sounds awesome.Just like the others mentioned, as a topwater.Deep sound to the clacking and needless to say, a really LARGE profile.It will get eaten. Steve

1/2 oz. bell on the front hook hanger and the deep eye and this bait works great for that 8'-12' deep cabbage, when wanting that big wobble/profile type bait!
