I have used that Storm lure in 3 different sizes. They are so mass produced that the quality of them is redicules.
The better Blue Gills are made by Castaic Lures and Matt Lures. None of the 2 come in mini sizes so you don't have to worry about Mini Bass.
Storm does make a good Saltwater plastic though. I have tested the Anchovy, Sardine, and Mackerel swim baits with great results. When the fish get frisky, the I will add some scent.
My scent of choice, Pro Cure. Yes, they are one of my sponsors.[cool]

I've been hesitant to try those things.. [unimpressed]
Just about the only soft plastic I use from Storm is the 4" Wildeye split-tail minnow in firetiger and pearl.
Other than those the original Hot 'N Tots behind the boards see a good amount of water time for Eyes.. these are the only two Storm baits I use.

I have actually caught a lot of fish on Storm stuff... even the hard baits. I don't ever use the jointed stuff, because I have heard some horror stories about that. But the normal jerk baits have produced many fish for me... especially on streams.
I have also done really well on the plastics that they make, especially the shad bodies. [cool]

I've fished alot with Storm lures in the last few years. I've only had what I would consider a "lure failure" on one occasion. Of course, that was on a 22 lb. 11.75 oz. Largemounth Bass that would have made me a millionaire if I had gotten her into the boat! Just makes me sick to think what usin' them Storm Lures has cost me.
Heck, you think if I have my lawyer talk to them that they'd try to make it up to me someway????
