BassFishingMachine Posted September 24, 2007 Posted September 24, 2007 I have heard alot about Sweet Beavers here and there and I do own a few packs, but I rarely do anything too good with them. So I just wanted to know when do you choose to use a Sweet Beaver and how do you fish it/rig it? There has to be a secret way of fishing this lure or else it wouldn't have so much publicity and so many knock offs. Let me in on the secret will ya? Quote
Super User grimlin Posted September 24, 2007 Super User Posted September 24, 2007 There's nothing to it.You can rig it T-rig like a senko with a bullet weight or weightless.If the water has a faster moving current i like to use 3/8 or 1/2 oz weight.In still water i go weightless. I generally work it like a jig popping it off the bottom every few seconds.Gotta let the fish tell you how slow or fast they want it.With fall bite pretty close here they will start getting aggressive..so for me i'll be popping it off the bottom a little bit faster. I'm even done them with stand up heads and jigs without the skirts on them....Skys the limit on how you can fish these things. Smallmouths,largemouths and carps like these here.These things are my favorite to use on smallmouths bass here. Quote

Super User Tin Posted September 25, 2007 Super User Posted September 25, 2007 The beav is awsome. Where ever you would fish a jig I like to fish them, docks, brush, timber, grass... doesnt matter. I noticed in pressured lakes where the jig is a popular bait the beav will usually out fish the jig because of its fall. I havent had much luck with the 5 inchers but the smallie ones and the 3 inchers have been good to me. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted September 25, 2007 Super User Posted September 25, 2007 Hmm... Use it as a trailer on a 1/2 oz jig, but be careful...You might get your arm broken! : 8-) Quote
