I’m in Florida and was wondering what swimbait I should try here. Should it be the “broke back” style with 2 or 3 sections or the rubbery fat tail style? Also should I use a smaller one since the fish don’t get as big in Florida as in California? Appreciate any help I can get! Happy New Year

If you want big fish I would use big baits. I often throw a big swimbait here in middle Georgia, trying for a kicker in a tournament. Big baits will catch average size fish, too. Try them all!
