Floating, suspending or sinking - which should I order?
Short answer
That is a merchandising decision rather than a technical one, and it depends on the water your customers fish. What matters for the order is that you name one, because the three are different builds from the same shell and a supplier who is not told will ship whichever the tooling already produces.
In detail
Note that buoyancy is not the same as action: the label does not describe how the lure swims.
