This may be old news to alot of us but to some , it will improve thier fish catching. The past couple of years I decided to beef-up my arsenal of hardbaits . I purchased several types of the H2O Xpress baits from Academy Outdoors , there are some great colors in thier line . I was'nt impressed with the action and noticed the split ring at the eye was oval shaped which gave the lure a "wide wobble" . I then replaced the oval ring with a round one and noticed a tighter wobble which looked a little more natural . Even after replacing the rings , they are a heck of alot cheaper than the Strike Kings , Bombers , and Excaliburs .
