The opportunity to have a lot of different tools for a fraction of the cost? Sign me up! A lot of companies are coming out with some kind of combo trimmer product that allow you to purchase one “power head” and then a variety of different attachments. Instead of having a separate string trimmer (or weed wacker) and then a blower and pole saw and edger… now you can buy one unit and get the tool attachment that you want for a lot less. While other companies are doing this, we demoed Milwaukee’s “Quik-Lok” version. Here are 5 reasons why we think it’s the best:

Their natural profile, realistic action, and ability to imitate nearly every forage species make them one of the most effective search baits in bass fishing. This is where swimbaits shine their brightest. Swimbaits were born to cover water.
