They are great for the bays and back of inlets at night. Hey they might not cast as well as an sp but if in rough surf you would tend to go bigger anyway like a darter or such.
They also have heavier and suspending bombers like this one.

if you want you can load them too. I like them and the guys who taught me would fish bombers at night. One guy still fishes a black bomber every time and he does catch some large.
