silvercliff_46 Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Ok so I have had a mess of bubble gum color soft plastic thingy's that I got shortly after the first Christmas ( me and Joe used to fish together when he was laid off from his carpenter job.). Anyway..., they are about 5 inches long have a flat wide curled up tail, worm/grub head 1 1/2 -2 inches long, and two holes slanted in where you can put one or two lead nail like weights. I like to fish these in the slop. I drag them over the top and let them fall in holes. They have a nice slow drop that can be controlled with the addition of the weights. I'll twitch them in the holes then move on with them. I acquired a basket full of them years ago, but am now running low and would like to get some more, but don't know what they are called. Can you help. Quote

silvercliff_46 Posted August 5, 2007 Author Posted August 5, 2007 Your right. I have a pretty crappy camera but I will try. Quote
silvercliff_46 Posted August 5, 2007 Author Posted August 5, 2007 Here is an even older one of similar design, red/glitter, and the last one I have left. I would also like to get some more of these. Quote

Cephkiller Posted August 5, 2007 Posted August 5, 2007 Here's the closest thing my GoggleFu could find. Alas, no weight pockets, though. http://www.action-plastics.com/grubs.html#shadgrub Quote
Super User Raul Posted August 5, 2007 Super User Posted August 5, 2007 The only thing I remember that resembles the first one is the japanese "Swimming Snake" from Berkley ( Japan ). Quote
Super User T-rig Posted August 6, 2007 Super User Posted August 6, 2007 The second bait resembles this one: Orka Shad (no weight pockets) Quote
silvercliff_46 Posted August 6, 2007 Author Posted August 6, 2007 Brand name should be in mold where arrow is pointing You would think so, but it's not. That is the weight pocket and it has some scratch marks on inside from the lead nail weights. I guess I will just have to settle on something close. I sure liked the little weight pockets and the lead nails weights. Good concept and they work well. :-/ Thanks for trying guys. Quote
