Super User Shane J Posted March 9, 2009 Super User Posted March 9, 2009 Man, The bait monkey got me again today, and this time it was a space monkey! Actually, today I bought a couple bags of the entire Rage Tail line, so my question is for those of you who have used them. I know these things have quite a few rigging options, but what do you say on water conditions that they work best in, and what works best? I'm looking forward to throwing an Anaconda or a Space Monkey, they look delicious! Thanks Quote
MNGeorge Posted March 9, 2009 Posted March 9, 2009 I've had very good results on river Smallies using the rage tail craw on a weighted EWG worm hook. Also have had some success with LM Bass using the same set up. Quote
Super User cart7t Posted March 9, 2009 Super User Posted March 9, 2009 I haven't caught a fish on them. Can't help ya. Quote

Usually at almost dusk they would bite and hit these guys. Quote

Super User Shane J Posted March 9, 2009 Author Super User Posted March 9, 2009 Yes!!!!! Thank you all for your comments, I'm thinking early this year I'll start throwing some jigs with the craws for trailers, then the shad during prespawn on the lakes and ponds, then the lizard will probly kill 'em while they're on the beds, then it's on with the space monkey, anaconda, and lobster all summer! It's gonna be a great year! Quote
rondef Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Try the lobsters tx rigged, they work awesome. Quote
westpalmfrogpunk Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Just wait till you get to fishing the shad. Its and amazing little bait. Rig her up on a 5\0 ewg superline hook and hang on. Fish just try and destroy the shad. I like throwing them in the morning over grass mats and aroud pads. But they will produce anywere. The frog is awesome too. The whole line is great and produces fish. The Anna is a big fish killer too. Quote
ChiCityBasser Posted March 10, 2009 Posted March 10, 2009 Just purchased the Shad and Chunks myself to use around grass beds and as a jig trailer. The water is just starting to thaw out and can't wait to try them. The website mentioned also has plenty of rigging info and ideas for each one of the products in the lineup. Quote

Goggle Eyes Posted March 13, 2009 Posted March 13, 2009 I have used The Toad quite a bit however it tends to spin on me. That may or may not matter to the LMs, but it bothers me. Quote
westpalmfrogpunk Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 The toad works great for me on a owner 6/0 hook with the screw lock. I am not sure what model it is but it works much better for me then a 5/0 ewg hook. Oh tip on the shad if they miss let the bait drop to the bottom and then sit and almost lift it like a worm real slow . I pick up a few that have missed the bait doing this. Quote
Ky_Lake_Dude Posted March 14, 2009 Posted March 14, 2009 Fishin the Rage Shad on top like a horny toad or ribbitt kills em! Quote
bigmountaineer Posted March 16, 2009 Posted March 16, 2009 I've missed some on the shad, I'll have to try it out. Quote
