Here's something to try.

I don't see folks fishing something like this very often.  But it is a killer, small bait.  The body is mostly clear with silver flakes and a black tinted back.  I fish it on a 1/8th ounce Keitech super round, tungsten jig head 2/0 or 3/0 hook.

It's a 2 3/4" Lunker City Grubster.  The tail is its weak point but it's not an expensive bait.  A ten count bag of the 2 3/4" Grubster is $4.49.  Six count bag of the 4 1/4" is $6.99, and a 15 count pack of the 2" is $3.99.

You can swim it.  You can fish it like a wacky rig or a shaky head.  You can mix your retrieve.  It's like a wacky rig because there seems to be no wrong way to fish it.  I say there is no wrong way because it frequently gets hit on the fall.

It's available in three sizes 2", 2 3/4" and 4 1/4".  For some reason they do not make all three sizes in all colors.

I'm not sure off the top of my head what brand it is, but the pops and I throw them on swinging jig heads.  I've had a lot of success with the 4" size mainly in shallow waters.  Good bait right there!

Comes in all sorts of colors and sizes too:

Sweet. 

Curious how they compare to the lake fork baby shad and the 2" Keitech baits. Those have been killer for me.

I use the Zoom version and caught the bass in my avatar with one. Here in Florida myself and other fishermen use this type of lure all the time.

Here is the setup I used to catch my avatar bass. It is a Zoom swimming super fluke Jr. rigged weedless with an added treble stinger hook I fished in open water on St. Johns River when I saw bass feeding on baitfish in the area.

They almost remind me of the old discontinued mister twister smoke sassy grubs. Those were killer little baits!

This saltwater fish is what prompted me to try the clear water color.  It's a silverside, and much of the body is clear.  When I was a kid, we used to get them for bait to use for catching Snapper Blues.  Snapper blues are young bluefish, about eight to ten inches long.  They'd come into the river in schools and when they were running we'd make what amounted to a pillow case out of metal window screen with a coat hanger bent to keep the open end spread.

We'd get a can of King Oscar sardines, and smear a few of them inside of the screen bag, then toss it in the water at the Town Dock, and watch.  Once they started entering, we'd give it a few minutes, then haul it in.  It would have hundreds of these.

As you can see, the body is pretty much clear except for the silver lateral line, the belly and the head, with a black tinted back. 

There was a Portuguese farmer who made baits for these out of clear Bic pen bodies.  They were about three inches long, and he'd use the tapered end.  He'd insert a piece of Christmas tree tinsel into the hollow body then run a piece of wire through it.  Then he secured a treble hook at one end using the wire and form a loop at the other to tie it to the line. 

The snapper blues would fight each other to get to the bait  I do not remember which end had the treble hook and which end had the loop for tying the ling.  My best guess is that the loop was at the tapered end. 

From certain angles, the silverside were nearly Invisible, but when they changed direction, they would flash.

Juvenile freshwater alewives are similar to the silverside with some transparency at the belly, with a smoky black back.

For whatever reason, the forum distorts some images, stretching them vertically (see the penny).  The grubster has a thicker profile, more closely resembling the alewife than a silverside.

My favorite grub style. It's great in ponds on a drop shot with a 3 or 4 inch leader.

Rig the 2.75" on a Keitech 3/8 or 1/2oz football and swim ("tick" it) along some rocky bottoms.  Also a good Carolina Rig bait.

They kind of look like a Mister Twister Sassy Shad.

I turned my father in law onto these jigging for walleye. Nice alternative to the curly tail grub.
