Not just a difference in brand but there is a difference in every single jig, Some irons swim so well while another of the same model may not swim at all.

Each model has its own purpose. Tady and Salas are the standards for brands, Sumo are made by Tady.

For surface look at tady 45's, and A1's. Salas 7x is also a great surface iron.

For yoyo Salas 6x jr, 7x jr, and Tady 9's and 4/0s are standards. The secret to yoyo irons is that it has to have white on it.

I tend to have better luck with glow-in-the-dark on one side. Especially a scrambled egg design when yo-yoing.
As far as which one is better it is all on you.
I have talked to some manufactures that have admited that they do not make lures for fish but for fishermen.
That's my two cents.
