What's With All The Rage About Rage Tail?

[wademaster1]

Just bought a pack of the 10" thumper worm in bama bug color, can't wait to test drive these, even though its chilly out, gander mountain should have it to me around Christmas Day. Thanks for the reviews.

They are nice baits, indeed. I would like to see them make a swimbait of some sort. With the A-rig craze I'm surprised they don't have one yet.

Try an umbrella rig decked out with Ragetail grubs.... It was a killer presentation on Oneida this fall.

That there's a good idea, JFrancho. Guarantee that will get 'em! Don't expect Big O to come out with something just because there's a "craze".

You will love these baits, if you experience any trouble or are having problems with the baits, go to the tackle section and post a question, I can promise you there is an answer, most likly it will come straight from Big-O too !!!

Ok, I have never used one, so educate me please...

I hear folks say they got some great action, but what does that mean exactly? When you compare lets say, Rage Grub with, Zoom Fat Albert, what is the difference in action, bigger wobble maybe? It also look like it is good when the baits are moving, but how about with supper slow barley moving presentation?

To help answer some of your questions, here's a link to the video pg. on the RT website... It has 3 different action videos that show many of the individual baits in action. All RT's are designed to have the best action, at minimum fall rates or retrieve speeds, on the market. Each of the subsurface baits are displayed with 1/4oz maximum weight, which is the most popular size weight used across the country. IMO, versatility is the name of the game and although each design has it's own specific use strong points, the majority of them can be used and/or tweaked for use in several other presentation styles with great results.

For sure, don't underestimate the use of the Rage Rig with any of our products and others as well. The key is to have a properly designed weighted hook, like the Moaner Weighted Stroker, that allows a more horizontal fall, where the weight is positioned further back, yet still allows the bait room to roll up on the hookset and more hydro dynamic in it's design. It's perfect for this style of fishing. You can find many other ideas in the rigging section etc,. and if you have other questions, just ask

As for Long Mike's comment on Mint Julips... he's right, I've never tried'em But I probably was having an adult beverage or two during the design phase of some of the RT's Heck, I might have to mix one up tonight Thanks for all of your comments and yes, many other designs are waiting in line for release dates so I'm not done YET!!!

You did not even tell us a round about date, these things must be like a NASA project "Top Secret" ooooooo I can't wait the suspense is killing me !!!!!

Rage makes a quality bait and they get it done.

RageTail has easily become my #1 line of plastic baits I use now. They catch fish, and last long too!

[wademaster1]

got my rage tail thumper worms a while ago and hit the nearest pond before dark, caught one little guy, not bad considering how cold it is, i've attached a pic of solid ice in my truck bed, LOL, only had about an hour to fish with these new baits, one fish out of two pulls, better than nothing this time of year. Well, I tried to attach a pic, says the file is too large so oh well.

After reading this thread I went out and bought two packs of the Craws, and also ordered two packs of the shad. I got to throw the craw in the water and was stunned by the action. Even when I left it alone the appendages were moving. I was reluctant to believe the hype, but now I'm a believer!

Not much I can say that hasn't already been said. I can't wait to see what new things are being developed!

[scrutch]

It doesn't get any better than Rage Tail! It is NO coincidence that most of my BIG fish have come on Rage Tail products. Last summer I got on a kick using a Carolina Rigged Smokin' Rooster as my primary search bait. Funny thing is, when I found fish and wanted to slow down and "work the school", I didn't change baits! I just stopped the boat and kept using the same bait! Nothing else worked as good.

Oh, Long Mike, one thing to add to your OP, I think Big O DID invent CAMO SHORTS!

[Topwaterspook]

I've never used these. There are places I fish in the dead of summer that are almost completely covered over with grass and moss mats. I use a technique I'd call..."topwater finesse". This involves using a true floating plastic and letting it rest for up to a minute between ever so slight, teasing twitches. My question is: do any of these RageTail baits actually float. If so, I'd like to give them a try...............thanks, for an answer.

[roadwarrior]

No, but they will appear to float on mats or lilies. All of these will work rigged weightless:

Rage Shad, Menace, Smokin' Rooster and Space Monkey.

My 2 favorite ways to Bass fish is top water and Texas rigged.

I just love the splash when he comes out of the water after it, and the thump, thump of the soft bait bite.

Just ordered a bunch of RTs including the toad. Gonna have the best of both with the toad.

Gonna try running it on top almost like a buzz bait or jerk bait, and fish it slow letting it fall in the lily pad pockets.

Just hope I cant wait for him to swallow it when buzzing.
