Super User rippin-lips Posted April 11, 2014 Super User Posted April 11, 2014 I rig mine with a flipping hook and a tungsten weight. I mainly just pitch it into cover or weeds. 2 Quote
gripnrip Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 T-rig, jig trailer, Jika rig. It is one of my favorite beaver baits. I am anxiously awaiting the Rage Bug. I love my beaver baits and with SK's success with the Rage products, I'm sure they won't disappoint. Quote
hatrix Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 I rig mine with a flipping hook and a tungsten weight. I mainly just pitch it into cover or weeds. X2 These have become my favorite bottom bait. I don't know if it is because they hold air bubbles in them but they fish love them. Quote
War Eagle 44 Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 I'll have to agree with the other guys, I've been fishing the D-Bomb for a year now and it's become my "go to" flipping bait. I get 2 bites to every 1 bite I was getting on other beaver baits. I've only fished them two ways, flipping jig trailer and texas rigged for punching grass. Quote
Super User Montanaro Posted April 11, 2014 Super User Posted April 11, 2014 You could tie one to a piece of string and put a bass in the boat Quote
Got1Fishing Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 The D Bomb is my go to bait! There's always one tied on my rod with a flipping hook and a tungsten 1/4oz weight. I always start off my jig fishing with a D Bomb as well. Hands down my favorite beaver. Quote
Super User Hooligan Posted April 12, 2014 Super User Posted April 12, 2014 I've taken to rigging them on a Rugby head or a Warlock head. Essentially a beefy stand-up head. Quote
hatrix Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 I hope since so many people have started using them in the past year or so there effectiveness doesn't fall off. I will keep abusing there fish catching potential al long as I can though. They draw more strikes then any other plastic I use. I am not sure how long they have been out but now they have a baby version if you are looking for a little smaller presentation Quote
WdyCrankbait Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 From what I have heard from my friends that use D-bombs, hooks are optional. They will catch fish even without them, hahah!!! Good luck at Guntersville! 1 Quote

I am not sure how long they have been out but now they have a baby version if you are looking for a little smaller presentation I honestly think it won't matter how many people use them. The rings on the body creates water displacement. Rings can definitely make a difference IMO. Quote
