Glittertails are different than non-jointed double 10s in some of the following ways.

1. Because they are jointed they cast farther into the wind. The non jointed 10s will sometimes get caught up into the wind.

2. The blade assemblies can easily be changed out. There are heavier blade assemblies for working deeper cover and lighter blade assemblies for working shallow cover or slow rolling.

3. Blade colors can easily be changed out while leaving the skirting the same.

4. Blade sizes can be changed as well such as going from a double 10 to a double 12 or a double 9.

5. I feel because of the jointed design and the hook set up that the lure hooks better than a single shaft double 10.

6. Because the lure is jointed a lot more action can be done on the lure. I like to occasionally snap the ones I use while retrieving to give it a triggering action. The lure will shoot to the side doing this a straight shaft 10 will not.

7. Jim has I think over 200 color combinations.

8. It is a proven design. I know of a lot of nice fish that have been caught on this lure.

Like any lure it is a tool to be used in certain applications. For example I use some believer cranks. Sometimes the straight believer will out perform the jointed, but I think the jointed believer gives a lot more diversity and that is usually better.

Another thing new this year is that Jim has some big double french blades that look like they will work really well along with some spinnerbait blades in multiple fish scale patterns. Pretty sure the fish are gonning to eat some of these in my boat next year....
