Wakebait lures

Who on here is using or has used these things?
Different people make them (Mann's, Rapala) but hard to buy in Aus. I couldn't find them on Ali Express but I think there was something lost in the translation.
Wobbly lure with a bib that dives about 6 inches and leaves a wake behind it on retrieve. Swims just under surface but trails a wake behind it.
Not a stick bait/walk the dog type lure.
I tried one out here last weekend. Not quite a wakebait but a close relative by Westin lures (bibles one).
Surface feeding king threadfin really liked them.
My first thought was Blackfella Ck at Roper where the barra boof everything on the whirlpool at the hairpin bend just upstream. Gotta clean up with 'em there and at the mouth.
