Jeffthefisherman Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Hey guys, im wondering if lizards are good for bass. If it is, could u tell me your greatest succes colour and stuffs like. ill probably texas rig it. Thanks Quote
ShouldBe0utdoors Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Lizards are very good for bass especially during the spawn. My favorite is a black/blue power lizard Texas Rigged. Quote
aarogb Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Lizards are the best Carolina-Rig bait for me. I like to use a Zoom 6" pumpkin color lizard with the tail of the lizard dyed chartreuse. Quote
Super User Maxximus Redneckus Posted May 27, 2009 Super User Posted May 27, 2009 2 words RAGE TAIL Quote
bpNClgmouth Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 Had good success with the Rage Tail Lizards during the spawn... Watermelon and Double Header worked well Quote
cbfishalot Posted May 27, 2009 Posted May 27, 2009 C-rigged works great in sizes 6in and up. Try mojo rigging or split shoting a 4in also. The colors that I use the most are watermelon and green pumpkin. Quote
central_fl_fishin Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 I have used the Zoom pumpkin seed lizards in the summer with good results. I fish them weightless and drag them over the pads. Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 ZOOM 6" in watermelon/chart is deadly on my lakes! Anytime of the year except winter(as if there is such a thing in FL)! Quote
SJex Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 I like a 4" Zoom Green Pumpkin Lizard on a shakey head or drop shot. Deadly in the spring. Quote
Super User CWB Posted May 28, 2009 Super User Posted May 28, 2009 3 words. Ragetail Ragetail Ragetail. Watermelon/Red Flake or Green Pumpkin. T-rig with as little weight as you can get away with. I like to fish them on Charlie Brewers Super Spider heads, 1/16 oz EWG. http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_57988_100006006_100000000_100006000?cmCat=CROSSSELL_PRODUCT The bait comes alive. Also have had success using Evo Shakee2 heads in 3/16 oz. Quote
curazyboy89 Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 6'' Zoom watermelon seed lizard. I rig it texas with a 1/4 or 1/2 oz weight. pop it off the bottom and had great results doing it. . Have fun! Quote
The_Natural Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 The Yum Zellamander is the best lizard I've ever fished. I have about 200 packs of Wave Worm lizards, and they are a good standard lizard. Much like a zoom or any other brand of lizard. Even with my large stash of lizards...I've been buying the Zellamander. It has a long twin tail that is unlike other lizards, and gets more bites. Dark grasshopper is the best color bar none. Quote
bigtimfish Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 For 6" lizards ZOOM is the only way to go MOSSY PUMPKIN . For 8" lizards Big Bite Baits kreit tail lizards at academy. watermelon red. for the big boys Strike King Iguana 10" junebug or grn pumpkin. Also gene larew Biffle o lizards rock 2. Quote
Steven Ladner Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 You can not beat a T-Rigged Zoom lizard Anything in junebug works great around here Quote
SDoolittle Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 I like a 4" Zoom Green Pumpkin Lizard on a shakey head or drop shot. Deadly in the spring. X2 This is my go to finesse bait. Quote
Mottfia Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 with all these guys posting in on the lizard you can see that its a pretty hot thing. I'm also down with it. a texas rig pumkinseed char. 6in lizard is a great flipping bait. I like the heavier size of things so I go for a 3.8oz I've also experimented with c-rigs last year and had good success from a 4in lizard (spotted bass) all the way to 10in lizard (guntersville). everyone should learn it A lizard is just a great year round bait. definately pick one up one day Mottfia Quote
Super User SoFlaBassAddict Posted May 28, 2009 Super User Posted May 28, 2009 On my lake I have TONS of lizards. Almost an excessive amount of them. I've caught most of my large fish on a weightless t-rigged zoom 6" lizard. I mainly work it like a topwater bait. On occasion I'll let it drop a few foot down and just give it a slow retrieve similar to a super fluke. The best fishing I've ever had with a lizard has been at night using a seven or eight inch glow in the dark chart w/black flake lizard. I've caught some 20+ pound catfish on them and a whole mess of 7+ pound bass. I've probably got more lizards in my garage than anything else.... Quote
bassprofishguy Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 tx. rigged or carolina rigged colors for me green punk. and black or white,best time spawn time get them lizards in the beds and the bass will kill that thing thinking its coming in to feed on the eggs Quote
looking4structure Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 For me its the zoom 6" cherry seed lizard Texas rigged with a small weight 1/8 oz depending on the wind Quote
bigtimfish Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 Look into Strike King Iguana and Gene Larew Biffle O lizards. I fish the Iguana yesterday on a c rig and those things float up to a vertical position.If you have an Academy around look at the Big Bite Baits Kriet tail 8" lizards. Quote
7mm-08 Posted August 17, 2009 Posted August 17, 2009 I used to have very good luck with chart/pumpkin zoom lizards in both 4" and 6". Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted August 17, 2009 Super User Posted August 17, 2009 GYCB Laminated Lizards Standard GYCB soft, salty plastic. Great action, texture and taste. Dark top, light bottom like most creatures in real life. 8-) Quote
