Hi all. I have a Rago bluegill and I have used it a few times now. The action is like a Huddleston but with about half the wobble. It is very tight. the tail moves back in forth quickly. The first time I casted it, it appereared to have very little action at all but once I got a real good look at it in a pool I could see the tail moving. It isnt bad it just wasnt what I was expecting. Besides good action is decided by the fish not us. The bait is made with a harder plastic and should last through a bunch of fish. The details are nice and I believe it will catch fish. So far I have used it 3 times with no bites or follows. I also use matt's gill and I have a ton of confidence in it. I like the action and have caught a lot of fish on them, both on beds and casting. I have actualy caught a fish with the bait just sitting on the bottom, not on a bed either. Both baits should work on beds but I prefer the way Matt's will pop back up on its own when the mail is beating on it, plus it is a lot more realistic. Jerry's will sit if you make it but it will lay on its side when it gets knocked over. Honestly I have not fished the Rago bait as much as the Matt lures but it is hard to use another bait when I have so much confidence in the first one. Since I have had the Rago the score is 3-0 In None of those 3 were big but I have caught a bunch of big females bed fishing the Matt lures. I am sure the Rago will have its place it is a nice little bait, but I like prefer Matt's
