If it's durability that your looking for, you can't beat the Slammer--the 9" goes for about $30. Each swim differently so you might wan't to find one thats right for you...

I thought twice about buying the optimum mainly because I don't like buying swimbaits that are all bent out of shape in the bag.. I heard you could boil them to get it back to its original shape--too much trouble for me.. They're less expensive than the Opreys which is always a plus.

You might be paying a little extra for the Ospreys but it's the quality that you are paying for. They also have a better selection in color. Bass World West in Santa Ana sells them prorigged, tuned, and ready to go.

You might also want to take a look at the Eagle. They're a little bulkier than the Ospreys but seem to be a little more durable.. They come nicely prorigged--stock. Out of the bag--you might have do a little tuning to get it to run straight.. I got one of the Joe Uribe Specials and I'm pretty satisfied with it.

Hope this helps.. good luck!

There
