Skspacemonkey Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 Hi, What are some of your favourite colors for the rage bug? Also how do you guys like to rig it? Thanks! Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 11, 2018 Super User Posted March 11, 2018 White is #1, then PB&J, Alabama Craw and Okeechobee. J-Rig and as a trailer for the Rage Blade. Quote

It's the head from the Freedom Lures Stealth Swim Jig ~ Allows one to use a variety of hooks also fishes around, over, under & most importantly, through any cover effectively.

Super User Choporoz Posted March 11, 2018 Super User Posted March 11, 2018 Greens and Alabama Craw on weighted swimbait hook....more than any other lure or bait.... maybe more than all others combined. I like the more horizontal fall...but sometimes on swinging jighead..sometimes trig....White on chatterbaits. Quote
Super User fishballer06 Posted March 11, 2018 Super User Posted March 11, 2018 Green Pumpkin Bama Craw Texas rig and hold on tight. Quote
CroakHunter Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 Great pitching bait, takes minimal weight for the appendages to flap Quote

countryboy65 Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 I use mostly blue craw and black and blue, mostly on swing heads. Killer on Kentucky lake Quote
parkerg31 Posted March 11, 2018 Posted March 11, 2018 Alabama craw on a texas rig for flipping. It doesn't hold up enough to work as a jig trailer for me. Quote
Super User Columbia Craw Posted March 11, 2018 Super User Posted March 11, 2018 My favorite pitchin bait. Four colors cover all the bases: Black-Blue, Green Pumpkin, Watermelon Red Flake and Okeechobee Craw. I also use it as a football jig trailer. Quote
Super User NYWayfarer Posted March 12, 2018 Super User Posted March 12, 2018 I have extremely clear water in my area rivers and lakes so I green pumpkin the heck out off all my soft plastics Quote
RyneB Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 green pumpkin Junebug California craw I like it as a T rig flipping and pitching bait. I began to enjoy it on a C Rig as well. Quote
Super User tcbass Posted March 12, 2018 Super User Posted March 12, 2018 I found it T-Rigged, weightless works well as a topwater bait over pads. Rarely let it sink. 1 Quote
RHuff Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 My best color by far is watermelon red flake. I pitch it on a texas rig with the weight pegged most of the time. Works great as a jig trailer too. Don’t count out the Rage Tail Space Monkey either. I’ve gotten bit a lot on days when the Rage Bug just wasn’t working. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 12, 2018 Super User Posted March 12, 2018 I think the Space Monkey is Big O's favorite. Quote
IgotWood Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 I love the Rage Bug! I like to peg it on a flipping hook. I've also had a couple of good days with it as a trailer on a jig. I trimmed the skirt so that both the tail and side appendages have action. It looks a little funny, but it works! Chameleon, PBJ, and black/blue fleck are my colors. Quote
Super User bowhunter63 Posted March 12, 2018 Super User Posted March 12, 2018 Green Pumpkin and my favorite way to rig it is on a rage rig. Quote
mattkenzer Posted March 12, 2018 Posted March 12, 2018 Rage Structure Bug BLACK - BLUE FLAKE .... 002 GREEN PUMPKIN .... 046 PEARL .... 084 SUMMER CRAW .... 100 Please excuse the caps, copied off my spreadsheet ..... yup I said spreadsheet. Rage and Punch Rigs .... 1 Quote
