Mine is an 08 tunnel. Seems to be built solid no problems at all (knock on wood) but that etec is a different story. Sooo eels seem to be the popular trout plastic. I feel when I use paddletails I catch more reds but it may be related to where I toss em.

Paddle or curly tails seem to work better for me.

Don't know if dis matters cuz I don't use plastic often but I do notic a change from shrimp back to shad then to shrimp during this time of year. They both have a color change in the tail as well as shape diff. But take it as u like .
Bout to switch back to shad now/ next week.
I try a double rig to see what's on da minue and then double up on dat.

Thanks bro. Might I also add depth change due to salinity .
I think. But that is linked to temp too.

If the fall, I do better on eels or shrimp tails like a DOA.
Later after the shrimp have left the lake, I do better on plastic cocahoes.
In the summer when it's hot, I like a gulp swimming minnow.
The problem with swimming minnows is that the croakers and pinfish eat the tails off
but flounder love them so it's worth the hassle.

The Browns Flappin Devil is a sweet bait. I use these and also cut and splice them with a mini solder iron to make them a 3.75 inch bait. I prefer prefer a wiggling tail v a rat tail but carry both in case my buddy is hammer'n them on the rat. It happens. :-)
