Tough call. I've had good luck with several different metal lips in different situations based on location and conditions. I've done very well with tattoo's large and small swimmer and his deep diver but I can't leave out RM Smith Big Eye swimmers in various sizes and the jointed is wicked pissah. Also can't not mention beachmaster danny's and cowboys or a MAC pikie. Looking forward to getting some of Hab's new swimmers (probably tomorrow).

Tattoo swimmers work well with a slow to medium retreive on the surface when it's smooth or light chop

Beachmaster danny is versatile and can be tuned to work well slowly on the surface or just subsurface with a little quicker retreive, I find the RM Smith will do the same without tuning.

Tattoo's deep swimmer, the Beachmaster cowboy and MAC pikie can get down deep quick when you want to work those areas with deeper water near shore or crank a swimmer down to some structure that's fairly deep and near shore.
