swimbaits

[rickmp]

Anyone seen those giant swimbaits that are gaining popularity in the bassin world? Was wondering if anyone has tried using them for muskie or pike? Any ideas as to whether or not they might be worth a try?

I have a 9" bunker Storm swim bait that I have used a couple of times. I got bubkis on it, not to mention needing a rod that can handle the giant lure.(I have an old bass-pro muskie rod but I need to replace a guide) I also have been using the six inch shad and perch color. I caught two northerns (hammerhandles) on the shad color nothing yet on the perch. Anyone catch anything on the orange color? Other than the Storm swims I haven't usen any of the Castaic or Optimum swimmers.
Good luck!
