joshholmes Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 I was sent a link to this bait in an old north american fisherman email. its a creature bait called the flying squirrel, only instead of having c-tails it has a double tail shaped like the back of a zoom trick worm. i would really like to buy it but i was hoping someone else had so i could get an oppinon before i buy it. here's the link http://www.bigbitebaits.com/FlyingSquirrel.htm Quote
brushhoggin Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 haven't fished these but bass are opportunistic feeders, if you present them in an area where bass are present, then you shouldn't have any problems. Quote
fishnabarrel Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 kinda looks like a guy wearing a kilt, haha i have not tried this bait and this post has also sparked my interest, im sure they'll catch fish but i wonder what the action is like compared to other creature baits, sorry for providing more questions then answers!

Super User KYntucky Warmouth Posted May 11, 2011 Super User Posted May 11, 2011 They work quite well. The bulbs on the legs float like the tail of the squirrel tail worms. It has a subtler action than a brush hog when worked. I used them for the first time last month at Guntersville and they were killing the talapia magic after the bite slowed on a brush hog. The one down side is they are quite thin and the bulbs tear off easily. They are worth the buy, a pretty good mix between a creature and a shakey head worm. work great t-rigged or on a jig head.

krisjack69 Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 These work great on a shaky head.I caught a few fish with them.One of the best shaky head baits out there. Quote
krisjack69 Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 I would think that u could use it for dropshotting too but I never tried it yet. Quote
Vinny Chase Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 Have yet to throw this bait, but it looks like it would be good on beds Quote

ArkieHawg Posted May 14, 2011 Posted May 14, 2011 These are awesome. I've been throwing them lately and doing well. Quote
