The Rage Tail Thumper worm in the summer.  They come 10" long, but I cut about 1.5" off, Texas rig it on a Gammie EWG 4/0 hook with a 3/16th bullet sinker and in murky water they love it.  Easy to find.

I just ordered some of these on the BF sale. I’m looking forward to trying them next summer.

I use the Rage Bugs and Rage Craw and Rage Chunks as jig trailers lot, and Ned Bugs as trailers on small profile finesse jigs.

Rage craw and Rage bug! Those two baits are stupid good!

[Hammer 4]

Over the years, both the babycraw, and the reg. craw have worked well. Lets not forget the space monkey. Been fishing Rage products since they first came out. 

Anyone remember the Anaconda..?

[VolFan]

i was just going to post that - the anaconda is the only Rage product i never caught a fish on. I just didnt fish them much. I wore out some space monkeys though. I rember going through 6 bags in one day fishing grass on the Potomac.

Rage craw easy.

When they're on it, it's just stupid good.

You ever throw that South of the Border?

4"  Bug.  Black Blue Flake or Blue Craw.  

 

The only limitation is your imagination.

You know @Chris at Tech I have. But my swing head baits there are Bigger.  10 inch Bullworm and big Senko do most of the heavy lifting.  Prought a few Mag Rage bugs to try last trip but they never left the room.

You know what it's like.

Btw Big Fish Jeff and I have 2 open seats in Terry's turbo prop Bonanza in Oct.

Oh boy

I like them all.  Havent found a rage I didnt like.  The Bug, menace and rage craw get the most work.  I like the cutter worms and thumpers too.  I a rage frog can be magic on the back of an arky jig.  When it's on, it's on.    10inch thumper can be awesome when on a 1/4 oz shakey head.   Another bait that can get white hot when it's what they want.

Menace, Craw, Bug, in that order. The Menace is just so versatile for me and catches such a wide range of different sizes of fish. Caught my biggest smallmouth of the year on a Moonjuice Menace on a swinging football head. One of my other top 5 smallies of the year was on a Rage Bug in Okeechobee craw on a swinging football head.

The Space Monkey is Big O's favorite. I fish them T-rigged with a 1/4 oz bullet weight.

This right here. I had the most success this year with a Space Monkey Rage Rigged. Floats down perfect on that set up. Black/Blue or Falcon Craw

Alot of times I forget about the space monkey, but lived had good success on them Texas rigged with a 1/2 oz into sparse hydrilla and around brush.   Overall good bait

Rage craw and Denny craw are my favorites. I use an awful lot of chunks as well. 

[Big Rick]

I did some serious damage this summer fishing a Rage Menace rigged on a VMC Drop Dead Hook 1/8 oz.  I was fishing in duckweed and cypress trees and the fish were short striking my toads and frogs. I downsized a bit with this. It worked like a charm. Straight, steady retrieve was the ticket. The 1/8 oz weight was just perfect to cause the Menace to ride low enough on the surface to stir up a racket yet the slimmer profile helped the fish commit to actually hitting the bait. 

 

Oh yeah, I swapped the twist spring out for an Owner CPS in large. It allowed me to catch several fish per bait.

Rage Bug for flipping.

 

Rage Craw as a jig trailer.

No love for Cut-R?

I would list Rage Bug as my favorite,  but Cut-R isn't far behind.  It can be a Senko and a swimbait....on the same cast.  I always have one of those two tied on.

Forgot about those!

Excellent swim stick bait that if the Speed Worm don’t get em, the Cut R can clean up.

Not the favorite, but a good special use bait - the Space Monkey seems to have been discontinued.

Eh, my brain said Smokin' Rooster, and my fingers typed Space Monkey.
