Yes, that has been a favorite lure for me and very productive over many years and I also bought them at Cabela's many years ago. They swim like a fish.
Here is a copy and paste of one of my earlier posts on it:

I've reliably caught many small mouth bass in East Canyon Reservoir every time I've fished there by shore fishing casting a fork tail goldfish swim bait while walking the shore.
I choose surface swimming swim bait deliberately because I have good control of it's direction on retrieves with good visibility of the goldfish to swim it close to weeds and sticks yet avoiding getting it stuck and tangled.
I've had best results fishing it everywhere my friend told me: "don't cast out there because you'll get your lure caught in weeds and rocks."
I told him: "But, that's where the fish are!"
Fish the weeds and rocks!

I searched for my many posts on this, but all of our old posts are gone. Otherwise, I could have posted the links to them. Our archives have been valuable as a resource of fishing information. Over many years, I've used them to look into fishing destinations I would try next. Sad to see the older archives and beautiful photography is gone. I especially enjoyed the excellent photography from TieDyeTwins.
