Primus Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Now that there are dozens of companies that make these types which ones have you tried and please mention the ones you don't like as well. I admit to having limited expierience with these but I was most impressed with the original Basstrix with the Reaction Strike being the worst that I've used so far. Quote

Super User BrianinMD Posted March 26, 2009 Super User Posted March 26, 2009 became a fan of the Yum Money Minnow yesterday, was my first day throwing it and was impressed with how it swam. Have tried the swim senko some and it does look good also. Quote

FishingPirate Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Netbait makes a nice looking bait. Try boiling those reaction strikes. Quote
bass wrangler569 Posted March 26, 2009 Posted March 26, 2009 Netbait makes a nice looking bait. Try boiling those reaction strikes. LOL I'm sorry dude but any bait that I have to boil to get to work properly isn't something I'm interested in . I'm with coldwaterbassin, bass magic and shadalicious all the way. Quote

bowtech_182 Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 I like the Reaction Innovetions Skinny Dipper. White Trash color. Quote
Thad Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 Mission Fish and the Rising Son x2, others can't compare. Quote
Captain Obvious Posted March 28, 2009 Posted March 28, 2009 well since all the other baits are swimbaits I guess this counts even though it doesn't have a paddle tail Lake Forks magic swim shad is my new number one soft plastic Quote
Primus Posted March 28, 2009 Author Posted March 28, 2009 Question on the Magic Shad & Skinny Dipper, how do you like to rig them? If possible please state preffered hook brand, size & weight. Thanks. Quote
J.McKnight Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Check out CHARMER BAITS 10.5" paddle tail worms. They are awesome. There are some pictures of a few fish we caught on them on Lake Fork last year and we smoked some pigs on them at Falcon a couple weeks ago. Quote
Mattlures Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Of all the hollow tube baits The original Basstrix is the best. also look at 3:16 mighty minnows. Very nice little baits Quote
bowtech_182 Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 I rig the SKinny diper with an Owner twistlock hook in 5/0. I sometimes use a BPS hook weight. Quote
OH-bass614 Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 money minow is good but i rly like the money minnow hooks ...ive tried alot of differnet swimbait hooks and cant get the bait to swim right without the monwy minnow hooks so money minnow+money minnow hooks= greatness Quote
hookset on 3 Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Hey Guys, I have had good results from the Optimum Double Diamond.Has a great shim and swim action. For the 5" use a Davis Baits X Swim Lock 5/0. The 3.5" a Owner CPS 3/0 Hookset Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 I have really got into fishing the Bass Pro brand squirmin' shad in 5" sexy shad color. It works great in the lakes i fish. Quote
