I'm really interested in these baits. Both silent and knocker...hoping peeps have some experience with these baits.

Honestly, I've done well with H2O squarebills, but would like a bit better quality on hooks and better action.
I do have a couple balsa squarebills that are exceptional, but I don't like tossing $25 balsa baits into wood and structure, as it's only a matter of time before these lures snag and break off.
Please recommend your favs as well.
TIA fellas.
You want cheap and effective…I’ll shamefully suggest the RCS squarebills. Deflect nicely and have ran true out of the package. If I’m gonna be tossing this bait in nasty conditions, these are what I’m using without feeling like shit when I lose them.
Lucky craft 1.5 is about all I use for square bills. Most of the time I am using balsa as I don’t crank much during the summer as the weeds and moss is just too preventitve.
