They work good for pressured bass. You can fish them fast, or slow them to just a few twitches and a very long pause.
My favorites are x-raps in black and silver, lucky craft pointers and slender pointers in table rock shad, aurora black and chartruse shad (the table rock shad is my all time favorite), and Megabass visions in pro blue. Lucky Craft and Megabass are very expensive, but I am usually fishing them in 10-15 feet of water or more, and they dive less than 5 feet, so I have not lost any of those.
