Blues19 Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 Anyone like them? I was throwing one of the money craws and the plastic seems kinda hard to where it slips up and down the hook alot. Did i just get a raw pack? The action isnt bad but i think i will stick with the rage craw, paca craw and zoom super speed craw. bwt i only got them because they were half off at Dicks Sporting Goods and thought i would try them Quote
Super User Hooligan Posted April 9, 2011 Super User Posted April 9, 2011 I didn't like the plastic either. The F2 feels overly stiff, and it seemed like it was hard to rig. Quote
The Guy Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 I like them. I have been killing them with the wooly bug and big show here lately. Quote
Vinny Chase Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 I don't think the big show is considered in the f2 line, but it was always been one of my favorite worms. I also like the kickin tail lizard, great pitchin bait. Quote
Blues19 Posted April 9, 2011 Author Posted April 9, 2011 Maybe I got a raw pack. I got a pack of the mighty bugs, so i may try it and see if i have the same problem. Quote
Mr SwimJig Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 They are ok, not as great as I thought they would be. SJ Quote
Vinny Chase Posted April 9, 2011 Posted April 9, 2011 They are ok, not as great as I thought they would be. SJ I agree. As much luck as I have had with the lizard, the action could be much better, the tail barely kicks! Quote
wisconsin heat Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 the shakelicious worm is a winner! its super thin tail has a sweet quiver to it Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted April 10, 2011 Super User Posted April 10, 2011 The F2 Dingers are way stiffer then the old LPT Dingers. I am not buying any more, and infact I am probably done with Yum altogether. Shame, they had some great stuff and ruined it. Quote
krisjack69 Posted April 10, 2011 Posted April 10, 2011 Why are they stiffer than the originals.I thought all they changed was the F2 attractant.Did F2 make the baits stiff. Quote
Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted April 10, 2011 Super User Posted April 10, 2011 After doctoring the tails on the salleemander I had great luck with them. They worked amazingly. Haven't tried Amy of the other f2 stuff yet. Quote
joshholmes Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 are you kidding me? yum has some of the greatest baits on the market. if you have any problems with the new f2 baits go to your walmart and buy out the clearance. their selling all the old yum baits for only $2.00! the yum money minnows which are usually 11.00 bucks are only 2. its freakin great. plus i can buy 4 packs of lpt dingers for the price of 1 senko pack. and its not just those. they had every single yum bait except the mighty bugs and shakalicous Quote
Super User ww2farmer Posted April 11, 2011 Super User Posted April 11, 2011 And BTW they stopped making the 3" dingers, that was the last straw. Quote
hookset on 3 Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 The Yum F2 Wooly Bug works great. In the Bama bug color on my first try with the F2 I flipped up a 4lber. If Walmart has the LPT Yum baits for $2.00,then I'm gonna take a ride with the bait monkey. Money craws; Wooly Bugs; Dingers and Tubes have been some of my favs for the last two years. Quote
Super User Hooligan Posted April 11, 2011 Super User Posted April 11, 2011 I stocked up on Tubes, Vibra Tube, Craw Papi, and Big Show worms. There's something about the Yum Green Pumpkin that is different than any other, fish around here just hammer it. If I didn't have the 4" Yum tube I'd be lost. Quote
Avalonjohn44 Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 I like what I've tried, which is only the Craws. They are a little stiffer than normal plastics, but I don't mind. Haven't tried the new dingers, I stocked up on the Walmart clearance bin and have a ton to use up first. Quote
joshholmes Posted April 11, 2011 Posted April 11, 2011 apparently only walmart supercenters have the clearance yum baits but its worth the 20 minute drive for me. apparently im the only one who notices the giant box of yum baits at the bottom of the tackle shelves for $2.00 Quote
MJB_215 Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 Yum dingers are what I use in place of senkos. I have a bunch of the f2 and they seem stronger then the older versions. Im a fan of yum f2 Quote

Im a fan of yum f2 Is the action on it still the same as the old ones?You could wacky rig the yum dinger and it would wiggle down pretty closely like a senko. Quote
MJB_215 Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 Is the action on it still the same as the old ones?You could wacky rig the yum dinger and it would wiggle down pretty closely like a senko. I would say the action is the same. I was using the f2 dingers wacky rigged yesterday and I got most of my fish on that rig. Mainly used the Mardi Gras. The pearl/white dingers were a little tougher then the other colors I had. I would stay away from the white dingers. I was using the 4"..15pack for 5 bucks aint so bad. They are loaded with salt too which I like.. Quote
krisjack69 Posted April 18, 2011 Posted April 18, 2011 I liked the dingers.I since switched to sk ocho's tho.I use two colors with them.Green Pumpkin and Blue craw.Thats pretty much all u need down here in the GA and they dont sell those in any store here in albany so the fish barely see them which is a good thing. Quote
Super User Hooligan Posted April 18, 2011 Super User Posted April 18, 2011 When it boils down to it, the majority of the reason I no longer like Dingers is that they don't make them in the right color. They have one color I would use, other than that, nada. The only color of yum anything I buy is the Green Pumpkin. Quote
bweave09 Posted April 19, 2011 Posted April 19, 2011 I haven't bought into the F2 Money Craw yet, but I have like 10 packs of them because all of the F2 stuff was on sale for 1.03 a pack. No fish on them yet and I don't like the action as much as rage, but they still look ok. The Mighty Bug, on the other hand, looks awesome in the water. I haven't had much time with it but I am impressed so far. The Sallemander looks good as well. I like the Shaky Head worm (Shakelicious or something) too as far as looks go. While typing this, though, I realized I haven't caught a single fish on any of the F2 baits haha but I know it isn't the plastic's fault. Sorry if I wasn't much help. I tried! Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted April 19, 2011 Global Moderator Posted April 19, 2011 I loved the old YUM wooley bug in motoroil neon, it changes colors after it hits the water and the fish around here crush it. Now they don't make that color anymore, I'm hoping the cajun neon will be similar. Just waiting for some warm weather and for the fish to move shallow so I can give it a test run. Quote
