The Tru-Tungsten Tru-Life 4" Swimbaits are a collaborative design created by swimbait kings Ish Monroe and Matt Newman. Each Tru-Life bait comes with 2 removable tungsten balls that can be added to the built in chamber. The tungsten balls can be added or subtracted to customize the fall rates. The 4" Tru-Life is available in two versions, a WAKE/SLOW SINKING to catch fish when they are feeding on top or shallow and a SLOW/FAST sinking version to get down faster and deeper. Tru-Life Swimbaits mimic a fish's natural movement utilizing a four segment design and adjustable weight chamber technology. Life-like scales, eyes and paint make this an irresistible bait for bass and other game fish.

Note: To achieve a tighter fitting of the sectional pin and avoid the bait from falling apart during use, bend the middle of the pin slightly, before replacing it into the bait.

Comments: Comments:Extremely poor quality bait don't waste the time and money. The action is horrible most of the time you're just dragging it through the water. I took the pin out on my slow to fast sink and upon putting the pin back in it chipped off a huge section of the bait. Tru-tungsten should be ashamed to have their name on this; it really makes me rethink buying any of their products now.

Comments: Don't waste your money on these.  Poor quality and engineering.  Lost the mid section and tail to a smallmouth because the pin came loose.  Paint chips extremely easily.  Better swimbaits out there in the $20 range.  Don't bother with these, you'll regret it.

From: Rich: Indiana, USA

Comments: Looks great in the water; but paint chips easy. Had one fish today and now the paint on the head and back are missing. Overall great action, not so good quality.

Comments:People don't waste your money! These baits are either defective or just plain cheap! For $20 per bait, I expect a bait to hold up a lot better than this one did!

From:Darrel: Winter Haven, FL

Comments:I lost this lure on a big smallie fishing in St. Croix river...I still need to purchase 2 more...It's a great swimbait, but the material chips easy, and it's hard to get it to dive to the depth you want it to go to...Other than that it catches fish...

From:Issac: Roseville, MN

Comments:Great bait, works really well, but not durable at all. I have bought two baits both are now broken from fish. I expected more for my money and am disappointed in the quality of the product and materials used when making this product.

From:Brian: San Antonio, TX

Comments:Cool little baits but the quality is poor for the price. After my first bass the paint job was destroyed. I've contacted Tru-Tungsten and they are replacing my bait but for $20, I expected a lot better quality. These baits are not worth more than $10, so don't make the same mistake I did. Very disappointing.

From:Justin: Sterling, IL

Comments:I love to burn this bait, the bass will not let it pass them without a taste (best swim bait I have ever used).

From:Jesse: Phoenix, AZ

Comments:Great colors and action. Really wish the fast sink rate was truly that. Even with both weights added it would sink slow and rise to the top at a moderate retrieve.

From:David: Hobbs, NM

Comments: This bait is o.k. but not great. I thought for once, with the tungsten bearings as weights, it would stay down on faster retrieves, but like all the other multi-piece swim baits, you have to work it really slow....and I even tried putting suspendots on them, but still, the best way to work is short slow retrieves, with pauses and rod tip twitches. Nice color selection.
