1.Watermelon Creme GYCB 5" Senko wacky rigged

2.Chartreuse Fat Albert Grub

3. 4" Keithech easy shiner on a swimsuit hook

#3 is a new lure for me this year and has been exceptional. That strong squid scent presents a scent that the bass in my lake have likely never seen.

This is the best spelling I have seen the Bait Monkey use!

Is the swimsuit hook a one piece or two piece? (Haha!)

Just curious, what hook do you use for the rage craws dropshotted? I have been using them all summer and love them like crazy, but I seem to lose more fish with them than normal, even setting the hook hard with a standard texas rig and a 3/0 or 4/0 EWG or other hooks. Are you getting a good hookup ratio?

When I'm fishing deep in no or very light (just on the bottom) type cover, which is how I usually fish it - especially for SMB, I use spinning gear and a standard 3/0 Gamakatsu EWG on the Rage Craw -  on 10 lb braid & an 8lb sometimes 10lb Big Game Mono leader (green).  They usually choke it pretty good, especially when it's all slathered up with Megastriike or the claws are dipped in spike-It garlic.  Either way, I don't have any trouble hooking fish and consider the rig as fool proof as any I fish - a real producer; particularly when the fish are in deep clear water.

 

When fishing it in denser (but not massive cover) I'll beef up the whole rig.  Casting gear - 30 lb braid, a 15 lb mono leader (or none at all).  Then the plastic goes on a 3/0 Owner Wide Gap Plus EWG hook.  A super strong, very sharp, superbly designed, Gaff of a hook.

 

Can you tell I like that one ?   :laugh5:

 

Hope that helps
