They've been getting much better in recent times! I agree that the Seducer's are the best, followed closely by the egg scented Smelly Jelly rubber eggs. I use the small ones in place of the long time fav Jensen egg sometimes to augment shrimp tails, crawfish tails, or small real egg clusters. Using them on the shank of jighead hooks as you would a pink worm also works really well (especially with some collar hackle). But I still like using two pink Jensen eggs with some white or light pink yarn as a great egg saving drift rig. ... If and when we get to the point of widespread bait restrictions, these improving rubber things are a great advent for us.
