Super User FishTank Posted January 12, 2007 Super User Posted January 12, 2007 Has anybody tried Chompers Soft Plastic Baits? Good, bad, or have a favorite? Thanks for any info. Quote
Super User KU_Bassmaster. Posted January 12, 2007 Super User Posted January 12, 2007 I have used the Chompers DT Hula Grubs on football jigheads and as jig trailers. That's the only bait I have used and have no complaints ...... well maybe one. Some people may like it, but I really don't care for it. The particular baits I use smell like garlic and it's VERY STRONG. I almost dread each time I have to open the bag. Quote
cjensen Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Agreed...those things stink to high heaven! But they do work rather well on a stand-up or football type jig head. Quote
Super User T-rig Posted January 12, 2007 Super User Posted January 12, 2007 the first time i opened a bag of them i almost puked!! but seems to work. try chompers super sinker, had some good results. Quote
Guest avid Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 They work well, but the stench isn't worth it. Zooms and gamblers work just as well without bringing tears to your eyes. Quote
Valascus Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Awwwwww...c'mon the stank ain't that bad...smells tasty. Then again I change my child's diapers everyday...so smell isn't really a factor for me. I like Chompers soft plastics. ALMOST the only spider grub I use...GYCB gets used too. I like using them on a stand-up jighead. Quote
Hawgin Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I can't use Chompers because everytime I open that bag I want to eat italian food. Then for the next few hours of fishing all I can think about is how hungry I am. I end up missing fish because my mind is elsewhere. Hey speaking of garlic have you guys ever eaten at........DANG IT! See how easily I am distracted. That's why I don't use Chompers. Quote
Chris Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 Aww just dab it a couple times behind your ears and go fishing that's what I do I use the spider grub a bunch it works great. Quote
volpster31 Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 ive used quite a few of their lures & they all worked great for me.....ive got a great story about getting something :-X :-X across the canadian border in a chompers bag.... but i wont get into that :-X Quote
Super User FishTank Posted January 13, 2007 Author Super User Posted January 13, 2007 I picked up a couple of bags and wow they stink. I thought Gamblers were strong. I am looking forward to fishing them. I hope the fish like garlic. Thanks for all the replies and if anybody has any more info please feel free to share. Quote
justfishin Posted January 13, 2007 Posted January 13, 2007 I like the Hula Grubs in Watermelon/red flake. They do smell though so wash your hands before you go home or your honey will question your whereabouts for that day. Quote
justfishin Posted January 16, 2007 Posted January 16, 2007 I like Chompers Spider Twin Tails on a football jig. They do have a phew factor though. I thought about going to another brand because of this. Any suggestions? I like the 5". Quote
castaway Posted January 17, 2007 Posted January 17, 2007 In my opinion, Chompers spider grubs have the best action.Yamamoto Hula grub is my second favorite.They do stink, but they flat out catch fish.I like rootbeer/green flake color and fish them on a football head, or use a hawaii dopr shot rig in around weedbeds.

Siebert Outdoors Posted January 17, 2007 Posted January 17, 2007 Chompers have some good baits. My favorite are their double tail hula grubs and their tubes. The hula grubs are the only ones I fish. I like them better then the rest of them out there that I have used. The lizards are ok but I like zoom better. The stinch, what those dont stink. Smells real good. Keeps the vampire bats away while night fishing. Quote
