I really like that salt and pepper w/chart. tail. You can work it really slow and still get the action out of the tail.

I use those on a popping cork rig with a 1/16 oz head. It has a slow fall that I find works a little better in colder weather. The only downfall with the SWA baits is that they tear up really easy. They will only last for 5-6 trout. On a good day with a few guys on the boat, it's nothing to go through 2-3 packs.
