Rob you bring up a great point. Why are so many baits called swimbaits? I always thought that a swimbait was soft plastic or at least partially soft plastic. I dont think a slammer or Mickey's armageden, or my hard bait is a swimbait either. Thats not to say that they are not good lures. It just seems that every jointed hard bait is now called a swimbait. Is it the size of the lure that makes them swimbaits? If so than all those muskie baits and all the salt water plugs would also be called swimbaits.
