nickb Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 What are your favorite plastic lure and what kind of retrieve would you use with it? Quote
The Next KVD Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 I can't honestly say I have a favorite b/c they have there times and places. However, I'd say I'm fishing either a senko or a tube more time than the rest. Senko usually is deadsticked and tubes are swam slowly. Quote
Blue Streak Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Paca craws, Sweet Beavers, Power worms. Texas rig, Carolina rig, shakey head and so forth. You can hardly fish them wrong. Quote

Captain Obvious Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Banjo Minnows.....no just kidding I like the Zoom trick worm because there is no tactic from shaky head to carolina ring that it won't work on It's much better than a senko Quote

Low_Budget_Hooker Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 I'd like to think I can catch a Bass on any plastic offered by Brent at ***. There's no rocket science to baits unlike many manufacturers would like to lead you to believe. On that note, they all work so give me the ones I can get the cheapest with the best and most personalized customer service. That ones a no brainer for me. ***, all day,. all night. Quote

There's no rocket science to baits unlike many manufacturers would like to lead you to believe. On that note, they all work so give me the ones I can get the cheapest with the best and most personalized customer service. That ones a no brainer for me. ***, all day,. all night. I agree 100%. I went out yesterday and drop shotted with some trick sticks in watermelon with chartreuse tails and that worked well. When I was up shallow I rigged some wacky and those were getting hit. I even had success with the 10" worm. I've got my soft plastics case almost completely full of stuff from ***, great quality, price, and best of all they catch fish! Quote
Super User MALTESE FALCON Posted March 23, 2009 Super User Posted March 23, 2009 ***: 6" Finesse Worm 7" Hookup 5" *** As has been mentioned, Brent is tops for quality, price, and service. Falcon Quote
twitchfish Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Spring GYCB DT Hula Grub Texas rigged VERY light and tubes stuffed with soaked earplugs and slowly swam. Summer Stike King ZToo, getting hard to come by, being forced to try Perfect Plastic Caffiene Shad in their place rigged weightless. Fall 10" worms, haven'f found any that don't get bit rigged anyway you like. I really want to try Fat Ika's, double rigged flukes and a lot more shakey heads. Twitch Quote
Super User KYntucky Warmouth Posted March 23, 2009 Super User Posted March 23, 2009 a 5'' stick bait (use many different brands: Zeros, yum dingers, kinami flash, ***....), and a BPS tender tube. Quote
Super User Jeff H Posted March 24, 2009 Super User Posted March 24, 2009 I can't answer this with a single item. My youngest son says (without hesitation) "***" (***). They sure made him a happy kid last summer and I gotta admit....they ARE killer!! Quote
tritz18 Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 5 inch worm, Yamamoto's and soon going to try *** Quote

Super User iceintheveins Posted March 24, 2009 Super User Posted March 24, 2009 I usually fish my senko with a slow retrieve that consists of a pull/twitch, then a long pause. I will alter the number of twitches and length of the pauses. Almost no way that I won't catch bass. Quote
Super User Bankbeater Posted March 24, 2009 Super User Posted March 24, 2009 Tubes Finesse Worms Baby Brush Hogs Senko and Senko knock offs Flukes Slug-o Large plastic worms Plastic Craws I think that covers about everything in my tackle bag. Quote
Redhed Posted March 24, 2009 Posted March 24, 2009 hmm worms - no matter what the tail - watermelon red, watermelon, pumpkin see with chart tail, black and my favorite junebug lizards, same as above but the fatter and shorter the better brush hogs weightless in any color just about Quote
Blues19 Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 Zoom Super Speed Craw in Cinnamon Purple! Small profile with great action. I can use it on a baitcaster or spinning rod. Or the Zoom Shakey Head Worm in Watermelon Red. Those two have recently become my comfort baits where I have a lot of confidence. Quote
done Posted March 29, 2009 Posted March 29, 2009 My if all else fails bait has always been Wave Fishing 5" tiki sticks, usually smoke shad color. I have caught bass in all weather conditions, all types of water with them. They rarely if ever fail to produce for me. Be trying out the *** ones soon. I will Carolina rig 'em, or some custom variant of that and just bring 'em back slow with a little jerk here or there. Be trying the *** sticks next time I run low. It is almost a curse though. I am so confident in them, and have used them so much, I think I go to them too quickly. Quote
