Berkley took its proven fish-catching PowerBait formula and added extra scent for even more effectiveness. The new, patented Bio-Salt™ ingredient simulates the salt content of live prey fish to entice the most finicky fish. It's been proven in field tests to be far more effective than the regular table salt found in some other soft baits. The vibrating tail of the swim bait simulates live baitfish. Size: 3" (Per 6). Colors:(998)Silver Shad, (007)Chartreuse/Silver Flake, (014)Pearl Red Eye, (017)Perch, (021)Firetiger, (556)Bunker.

Too stiff,November 23, 2009
By pikie79from Northern NY.
"These baits are too stiff to work at a slow steady retrieve. I was using the 3 inch model. If they don't work when retrieved slowly, then they are no good to me...mine are in the give away pile now."

Swim bait,February 24, 2009
By FishnBobfrom Iowa, IA
"So far with these swim baits I have caught walleyes, bass, and even some monster crappies. I definitely recommend this product being that the fish do hold on 18 times longer being able for you to get those hook sets in even when you are day dreaming about that other monster you just caught! Anyways it’s a great product and I definitely recommend these baits."

Sweet Swimmer,February 11, 2009
By shadrapmasterfrom Snellville, Georgia
"This lure really works. I love the way you can slow it down and yoyo it off the bottom. If the bass are there it'll get'em. Not crazy about the packaging - they need more support to stay straight."

"I like these baits ,they cast really really good , swim good and i found they have a good weight to my liking . Caught a 38 inch Pike 3rd cast . Bluegill worked on that pike but i have yet to catch anything else on these. For the price ,pick up a package and cast a line ."

Great Bait,July 25, 2008
By Anonymousfrom Midland, Tx
"I bought a package of the swimbaits before leaving for Lake Amistad, Tx. Fishing was fairly tough the second morning so I tied one on and caught an eight pound largemouth on the second cast. Only complaint is that some are unbalanced and don't swim straight. Great bait. Will be using more in the future."

All looks,June 5, 2008
By SRUhuntandfishclubfrom Slippery Rock, PA
"These baits look good, they seem like they would kill fish....BUT THEY DONT! I have used these just about everywhere in every condition and multiple retrieve actions and i have never caught one fish on them. They are really heavy though, which is nice for covering alot of water, no sense in tieing them on anymore."

Good Baits,June 3, 2008
By BigBass7from New Bedford Ma
"These are very good baits that have very good tail action and they also have good vibration for a bait of this type. Because it sinks when it hits the water these baits can be worked at a variety of depths with a variety of retreives, Good depth control because of this."

Don't leave home without em.,January 31, 2008
By DaveF41from IL
"I have used the power swim shads for a few years now. after watching Doug Stange on IN-FISHERMAN, I ordered some and have never been sorry. I use them with an Owner jighead for walleye and i use them as trailers on JMac Musky jigs for muskies. If you haven't seen it, you wouldn't believe how hard walleyes hit these things and how deeply they inhale them. Perhaps someday, Berkley will offer them in freshwater color patterns as well as saltwater patterns. (Although, the saltwater patterns are working pretty well.)"

"Yes they look good and swim alright,but Ive used alot beter and have only caught one fish with these.I dont like the hook on these either,and they are too heavy!!! They cast a mile! Just take the weight out of these and I would give it one more star.Not a versatile bait.Sorry Berkley,you almost got it right."

Hooker,June 25, 2007
By hawkman1457from San Angelo, Texas
"I had tremendous luck with the "Berkley PowerBait Swim Bait" on my recent fishing trip to Lake Amistad in Texas. On my first cast I hooked a 5 lb. black bass. I subsequently caught several other bass on these baits and was more that satisfied with the product."

Perfect Bait,May 23, 2007
By WalleyeHound
"These lures are the most realistic bait I know. The size is perfect for long casts or trolling. Speed of retrieve can keep it shallow or run deep. The color patterns are realistic and tail action is great. This is my favorite "go to" lure."

Berkley PowerBait� Swim Bait,November 21, 2006
By HWK2from DFW, TX
"Great swim baits !! These swim baits seem to catch more fish in salt and fresh water than any other that I've tried. The best results come from letting the bait sink to the bottom and slow role it back to shore. Tight lines !!"

Berkley SwimBait Shad,November 6, 2006
By BrianOfrom Yuma Arizona
"Wonderful Lure. This morning used it to catch a 9 lb, and two 4 lb bass and three nice stripers of around 3-4 lbs apiece. Tried everything else and finally started to jig this lure in about 15 feet of water and really got into them. Caught several 1-2 lb bass also. They really slam this lure. At this time of year fish are fattening up on shad in the Colorado River here in the Yuma area. Nice product and I need to order some more."
