Take the back hook off and replace it with a large snap/barrel swivel, to that attach a size 6-9 colorado blade. Also you will want to bend the tail downwards. I tend to use suicks pretty aggressively so the angle of bend on most of mine is closer to 90 degrees from the body. This gives it more of a head first diving motion. I would also suggest taking them and a pair of pliers and just keep experminting until you find an angle and action you like.

The unweighted can be a great weed/slop bait since it backs-up nicely. I don't fish weighted suicks much anymore that need has been filled with the 10" Jake. The tail controls the bait and you'll see that you can make it do different things based on how the tail is bent. I like the 10" better for weeds so my 9"ers are all tuned to have a TON of lateral movement, basically zig-zagging back to the boat (2' left… straight… 2' right… straight… 2' left… etc.)

Also experiment with the retrieve. A pull compared to short taps will, of course, make it do different things.

Consider removing the back hooks on them also. That rear hook seems to end up in gills and other bad places more than any other lure. Almost every fish is going to be hooked on the front hook. I removed all mine more than 15 years ago and never noticed a difference in hooked fish.

FYI – The 40th Anniversary, 2006 Muskies, Inc. Commemorative Lure is going to be a Suick, it's a really cool paint job.
