Keitechs New Swim Jig

Jig it, spin it, buzz it, if it's got a wire or a lead head, it can and will be discussed in here.

used the swimjigs for a few weeks now.
my impressions are good. theyre more of a big fish bait, especially with the fat swing impact used as a trailer. its a big attractive bite with some sexy action.
the screw holder works great. ive went through a few fish without having to put on another trailer. the skirt is very durable as well and holds up nicely.
all in all id say they were worth the cash and ill be getting more.

It sounds like a great bait. I picked up a few this week in Osaka, Japan. Hopefully I'll have the chance to use them soon

I picked one up to try and can honestly say I was pretty disappointed in it. It catches grass pretty good and after a few casts, the Swing Impact falls off the keeper after each cast. I didn't catch a fish on it before I had to switch the Swing Impact trailer because it was simply coming in sideways.

I find nothing special about them besides a cool looking design that isn't really that great. I'd much prefer a screw lock than the push pin keeper.

Mine swims great! I have yet to catch one on it yet due to really tough fishing conditions the last few weeks.

There is no push pin keeper on the keitech. Unless you are pushing the trailer in instead of screwing it on then i can understand why you keep loosing them :lol: For me the screw holds a lot better than a screw wire keeper.

LOL!

After looking at it again, I guess it is a screw lock. I was just pushing it in as that's what first dawned on me when I saw it. Im used to the spring style screw locks. I just took it out of the package on the lake and tied it on and started chucking it.

Come on Vince! ;) I grabbed some too and it swims great through weeds. No hits yet tho.

Ha ha Ha Legend I lost three of the shakey heads by just pushing on the worm like you did and destroyed almost a whole bag of finesse worms. I am such a knucklehead !!!!!! But I am glad I wasn't the only one who didn't get it !!!
