Mimic Impersonator quick review

[BassmanRudy]

Went fishing yesterday to try out all the new lures! Wanted to write a few reviews.

One thing I noticed really quick about this shallow lipped crank is that it SINKS! Most likely by design but I'm glad I noticed it as I was fishing in/around the reeds and sinking down would snag. I'm wondering if in clear water I couldn't count this down and then retrieve at that level?!

Pros-
-casts like a bullet! Was hitting my retie knot.
-Inserts are easy to change just use a worm hook at the back to pop out.
-Has a nice wobble that feels good on the rod. Reminds me of old Manns 1-minus.
-hooks are triple grips and sharp!

Conclusion- I'm glad I got the bait and look forward to using it this year.

So is that more of a hybrid like blade bait with a square bill?

Thanks for the review Rudy!

If it sinks I would think you should be able to count it down to a certain depth and fish like the Rapala count down baits.

Having a short bill like that at that angle may limit to just how far it will sink maybe?

Either way it's interesting. Gonna add it to my wishlist.

might be something to replace a trap when everyone is throwing them this spring....

Hey mike, ya think fish are put off by what everyone else is casting? In my experience, most fish in a body of water don't know what other fish have been caught on, but will strike good lures that have proven themselves time and again like the one shown. Lure details matter when I evaluate lures that catch fish and I add the good ones to my favorites list.

Nice look'n lure BTW and great review Rudy!
