what happened to their tails?

They were tasty!

Storm swimbaits are soft plastic and have fragile tails. They have great swimming action but fish can easily bite them in half.

Hooks and eyes were rusted off also. I saw a seagull trying to eat one once, so I pick all of them up and dispose of them properly. Metal detector picked them up due to lead weights inside.

Bluefish love biting the tails off of the swim baits. Then they are no good.

I was gonna say that, I've had bluefish bite them off without even feeling anything. Bit them right in half, looked like it was sheared through.

Bluefish are my favorite fish, and they're a lot of fun to catch. They'll come up from 20' down and leap out of the water to throw a hook.
