wack Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 Has anyone tried these new stickbait/worms yet? I saw them mentioned in this months FLW. I know they are fairly new but it appears from their site that many retailers are already selling them. Just wondering if anyone has used them or would recommend them. Quote
EastTexasBassin Posted November 16, 2009 Posted November 16, 2009 A friend of mine was throwing one of these last time we were fishing. It looks cool, but he didn't get a hit on it. I was catching fish every few minutes throwing a ragetail craw, so he put it down and switched. I'd like to try it sometime though. Looks like a great bait for a c-rig. Especially when it gets colder. Quote
FishingBuds Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 They are very big in Texas obviously, I haven't seen them in my neck of the woods, sure would love to try'em tho. maybe Glenn needs to pick up some and give'em out for Xmas to us:D Quote
mattm Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Awesome baits. The way the tail floats up and the slow sink is awesome. I will admit I haven't done as well with the bigs ones as I thought though. It is HUGE though. Quote
The_Natural Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 As much as I got annoyed at the Grandebass hoopla on the Texas Fishing Forum (it got ridiculous); the Rattlesnake is indeed another classification of bait versus the standard ringworm (much to my shagrin). I reluctantly bought a couple of bags of Rattlesnakes at Academy, and found out they can outfish Senkos as far as a 'catch anything and everything' bait. The Hag's Tornado is a Grandebass Rattlesnake Knockoff with a floating tail. Hag's bait with the floating tail may benefit you if you use a rattlesnake on a shakey head, but I fish them wacky. The Grandebass bait seems to have ribs that are closer together versus Hags bait, and I feel it makes for a better profile, feel, and texture. Hags bait and the Rattlesnake both obviously work....the 6" Rattlesnake rigged wacky is just dynamite. These baits are probably the hottest soft plastics out there... Quote

Do you use a weighted hook when you fish them wacky? Quote
Thad Posted November 17, 2009 Posted November 17, 2009 Natural, are you talking about what Grandebass calls their Diamondback when you said the 6" version? Quote
Super User fishfordollars Posted November 18, 2009 Super User Posted November 18, 2009 They are killer lures. Quote
The Hag Posted December 2, 2009 Posted December 2, 2009 If Glenn wants to run a Christmas contest on here that he starts, I will donate baits to it for prizes. I emailed Glenn about being a sponsor on here. I sure don't want to unintentialy break any rules. So, I won't answer any questions here. You are more than welcome to email me anytime though. Quote
Super User 5bass Posted December 2, 2009 Super User Posted December 2, 2009 Welcome to the forums Tommy. Glenn will be along shortly to assist you. If you have any questions, shoot me a pm. Quote
