spot remover

[Bass XL]

I am looking to try some spot remover jig heads forr shaky head. My question is, does the spot remover, and the spot remover magnum (no wire on either, just a thing to slide the bait on), does the bait stay on good? I mean, it looks like it could just slide right off. Pleas help

They do hold pretty good but a small drop of soft bait glue doesn't hurt. On your worm,break off about 1/4th inch before putting it on. The Spot Remover Pro's have the actual shaky head type holder.

agreed....a spot of super glue seems to help, though it isnt NEEDED

I've never had one come off either and I don't use glue, but I'm sure it would help.

I've been fishing the Spot Remover for a few years now and I absolutely love them. I fish with one of their pro staff members almost every week so that has also helped me form my opinion on them. I have caught well over 1000 fish on the SR. It is the most versatile jighead I know of. You can shake it, hop it, drag it, pitch it, flip it and even swim it and it catches fish. The post on the original Spot Remover doesn't look like it will keep a worm on but I promise you it will. My opinion is that it is better than the new Pro Model cork screw because it allows the worm to slip off and move out of the way when you set the hook on a fish. Of course after one or two fish, the worm will either have to be cut a little shorter or replaced because it will start slipping off. But that is to be expected. I forgot to mention that they are the best bed fishing jig I have ever used.

The differences in the Models are this:

Spot Remover (Black box) - Ridged peg, light wire hook

Magnum (Red box) - Ridged peg, Super line hook

Pro Model (Green box) - cork screw keeper, light wire hook

I use mine without glue also and they never slide off.  I love me a spot remover.

Thanks for the help guys. I have a tourney next sunday, and I am in desperate need of some shakey heads. I just bought some from harshman (witch i cant wait to get) and i will be goin up to BPS next week some time, so I might give the spot remover a try.

Great jig heads.  I prefer the lighter ones like 1/8th oz to be sure the floating worm stands up well.  The hooks are a little soft and will bend but remember it's finesse fishing and it'll work ok.
