I came across a bag of Sweet Beavers I had from Reaction Innovations that was with my summer stuff. Does anyone on here fish these? The color I have is called Dirty Sanchez and I have no clue as to where I baught it from. I didnt even know I had anything by Reaction Innovations. Can I rig it backwards like my Fat Ikas on Owner 4/0 EWG hooks and weightless or is this too different of a bait? Im betting itd work great backwards love the color pattern on it, it looks like green pumpkin on one side while watermellon on the other all w/ black flake I believe.

Game,
Out here in AZ, they are all the rave.  Check out www.reactioninnovations.com and they have some pictures for rigging them.  My favorite is to rig them backwards and put a lead nail weight in the nose and you can get them to fall away from you.  Works great for overhangs and docks.

Yeah I just read that on their website, I overlooked the rig stuff. Arizona is very nice, I went to Tucson for a vatcation about 10 years ago. The weather is unbelieveable, hot weather there is always dry and not bad at all compared to here where its so humid. Also some fantastic fishing in AZ, fat hawgs. I mention that because their headquarted in AZ I believe, if I were you id try to get a job there or see if they can walk you through their production line. When you said their all the rave did you mean the Sweet Beavers?

On a side note, my wife and I were strongly considering moving there. We narrowed it down to three states.. Arizona, Texas, or Tennessee.

I fish the sweet beavers carolina style and with a slider pro jig head... I usually use a
EWG gamatsu hook or an owner ewg hook 3/0-5/0

I use the smallie beaver as a jig trailer on hair jigs during the winter.  It works pretty well.

Those are some of the best soft-plastic baits available IMO. I use the sweet beaver on a normal t-rig, weightless, c-rig, and as jig trailer. I also use  the smallie beaver on a splitshot rig, shakey head, and on a drop-shot.

Beavers are a great flipping bait.  I usually t-rig them with a pegged 1/4 oz bullet weight on a 4/0 EWG hook.   I mainly flip them against logs and laydowns.   I also use them on carolina rigs.  They are an awsome bait.

Close, I got mine on Hall road which is m-59.. actually I think thats the one! Its the only Reaction Innovations baits that they carry in which I saw some time ago. Its next to their YUM, Slug-Go, and GYCB stuff if I remember right.

Hmmm, very interesting!
