Super User roadwarrior Posted July 31, 2013 Super User Posted July 31, 2013 Big O was in town Monday and invited me to dinner. We had a great evening and good conversation. It's not surprising how much work is involved in designing new products. Input from 28 Strike King/ Rage Tail Prostaff is something that brings on the water expience from Tournament Pros into the equation. Mr. Parks left me with a few samples of the new Rage Tails, but I have only fished the Cut-R Worm so far. This may be the Next New Thing! The action and profile REALLY appealed to the bass in my local pond. I think everyone is going to have a new favorite worm. This bait and the others introduced at ICAST should be available at your favorite retailer in a couple of weeks. http://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-videos/rage-tail-2013.html 2 Quote
Super User Felix77 Posted July 31, 2013 Super User Posted July 31, 2013 Cant wait for the new DB Craw! Perfect 1 - 2 punch with the original Rage Craw IMO. Subtle DB Craw when the bite is a little slow. Lively regular Rage Craw any other time. 3 Quote
Super User Shane J Posted July 31, 2013 Super User Posted July 31, 2013 Yes, it is amazing how much goes into this stuff from this man. The baits just don't go, until everything about it is completely right. There's a reason why they're at the top of their class! 2 Quote
Arv Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 Really looking forward to the DB Craw and the Cut-R Worm. 2 Quote
PABASS Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I am a nice guy but I love to RAGE every now and again lol.. Awesome baits, want to give the shell crackers a try and the new craws as well.. 1 Quote
Super User AK-Jax86 Posted July 31, 2013 Super User Posted July 31, 2013 ^x2 I went out bought some more Rage Craws for my tackle box last night. Quote

NEjitterbugger Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 Lately the only soft plastics I have been purchasing are rage tails, absolutely amazing! 1 Quote
Arv Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 Lately the only soft plastics I have been purchasing are rage tails, absolutely amazing! I've been trending that way too recently. 1 Quote
NEjitterbugger Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 Just ordered 10 packs of rage craws, 2 hawgs, 3 smoking roosters, and 2 space monkeys Quote
Super User Shane J Posted July 31, 2013 Super User Posted July 31, 2013 The new craw has a never before achieved claw action, and a streamlined claw following, to give it a whole new action that will amazing. If there were any unfilled gaps in the Rage Craw lineup, this new one takes care of them nicely. A great addition to my bag, for sure. Looks like they will be available sooner than I thought, too. Nice! 1 Quote
CTGalloway21 Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I am still not 100% completely sold on Rage tail. My first pack was the frogs and I had a problem with the Rage Tail part tearing off very easily around the same spot on all of them. Quote
Hyrule Bass Posted July 31, 2013 Posted July 31, 2013 I am still not 100% completely sold on Rage tail. My first pack was the frogs and I had a problem with the Rage Tail part tearing off very easily around the same spot on all of them. not sure if you realized it, but every rage tail ive tried, you have to tear apart a small section of plastic on the appendages. or are you referring to something that happens after that is done? i too, only buy mostly rage tail plastics, very few other plastics i buy... 1 Quote
Super User rockchalk06 Posted July 31, 2013 Super User Posted July 31, 2013 I try not to jump on the perverbial bandwagon when new stuff comes out, but this worm really has me pumped. I'm thinking on the back of a swim jig too 3 Quote
Super User deaknh03 Posted July 31, 2013 Super User Posted July 31, 2013 I wanna see the Rage blade, cant wait! Quote

I'm thinking on the back of a swim jig too There are lots of rigging options, but Big O specifically noted that if you are fishing it like a traditional worm or Senko, rig the Cut-R Worm tail up. If you are swimming the bait, tail down. 1 Quote
trupp30 Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Does anyone know when these new products will be available? Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted August 1, 2013 Author Super User Posted August 1, 2013 As I stated in the original post, Big O told me it would be a couple of weeks. Quote
trupp30 Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Sorry about that, I should have reread your post. I do have a few questions though. When you fished the cutter worm; which set up did you find to be the most productive T-rigged, rage rig, or some other style? Also, what retrieve worked better; swimming, hooping etc? Thanks, I only ask because I use alot of Rage Tail products and the worm and craw look very interesting. Quote
Big-O Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 It's Versatile for sure and hope you like'em when you get a chance to Fish'em. If you Rig it weightless... You might wanna rig the tail up and watch the fall has the body motion of senko style baits but the tail wags seductively from side to side too. You can also pinch it down on length as needed or for use as a trailer Hope you Have Fun with'em! Quote
Mccallister25 Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Im def. gonna have to get my hands on a pack of the DB craws when they hit the shelves. Quote
ChicagoEd Posted August 2, 2013 Posted August 2, 2013 Roadwarrior, that vid doesn't work for me. Is it on YouTube? I would love to check it out. Quote
