ACADEMY Brand SWIM BAIT Product REVIEW!! (should I buy?)

[@ericpettyfishing]

I just picked Ed one of these up, same color. 4.5 inch. Most of my ponds have crappie too so I hope it works as well as it did in your video!

[@EasyModeFishing]

I tear em up on these things. The soft fin one works even better

[@typicaloutdoors3335]

It's a bad ass bait...they swim so pure!!

[@caniaccharlie]

I think I'm gonna grab a couple of these to try. I had never really looked at the fishing gear in Academy but was surprised today by their H2O Express brand! I did get a couple of their hollows body frogs to try, they seem good and had some different colors.

[@typicaloutdoors3335]

Man they have stepped their game up for sure. I like them a lot...I would like to throw some bigger ones like glide baits...but these are a manageable size for me...lol

[@caniaccharlie]

@@typicaloutdoors3335 What kind of setup do you like for fishing swimbaits like these?

[@typicaloutdoors3335]

@@caniaccharlie I would preferably like a heavier rod. 7:1 8:1 reel would be plenty. A little heavier line as well.

[@caniaccharlie]

@@typicaloutdoors3335 Just left Academy with three of them! I got the "chrome" bluegill, the live male bluegill with the soft fins, and a red eye green sunfish. I kinda want a couple of the smaller ones too.

I got the same one today and wanted to see if others liked it as much as I did. Caught 2 on it today

[@typicaloutdoors3335]

Your close...Conroe!!!

[@TexasSlamFishing]

Cool I've been there too. Do you ever go saltwater fishing

[@typicaloutdoors3335]

@bestfishingtexas9138 it's one of my favorite things to do. I just haven't been as much since I moved to Conroe 6 years ago

M brother just caught a 7.8 lb large on the exact bait
