Prime time: 10:00 AM - 2:00 PM

I bought two this weekend. Rigged on up with 3/8 oz jigheads, 5 1/2" Shadalicious and a 3/4 oz Ledgebuster (white) single blade (silver) spinnerbait in the middle. The rig is just too pretty to fish!

Last post tonight. If you want to get together tomorrow, let me know. I will check this thread tomorrow morning at 4:00. -Kent

Too funny! But so true.

Put them in a cooler on ice. This method also keeps them fresh.

I am not aware of any shad kill going on, certainly not on this part of the Tennessee River. Shad begin dying off at about 45*, 42* is where the massive kill occurs.

I have a business appointment in Selmer Friday morning (tomorrow), but should be able to get below the dam by 10:00 or so. If you have an open seat, let me know and let's go! -Kent

Well, they are not "my baits", just baits I use. I'll be specific: The Rage Tail Craw has a subtle quiver even when it seems to be stilll. The "action" makes the bait appear to be alive when you are not working the Craw. Although there are many ways to rig the plastic, I suggest simply substituting the Rage Craw for whatever jig trailer you are currently using. See if it makes a difference for you, it has for me.

Perfect... Spend two bucks and see what you think, there's really no down side.

It's quaint. I think you would like it just fine.

I don't have the NRX 854C, but that's what I want! You won't find that for $350, but you might find a GLX MBR844C or BCR854 for that price or even less. I have both rods and HIGHLY recommend them.

Anyone fishing the Tennessee River this weekend?

Another to consider: St. Croix Avid AVC70MM

These are some other "secrets":Rage Tail Single Tail Grub, Keitech Swim Fat, Shadalicious, Hollow Belly and 3 1/2" Gitzit. In the spring, Rage Tail Lizard. My #1 for lakes is the GYCB Fat Ika.

From the southeast corner all the way around to the drain near the northwest corner.

I have not fished since New Year's Eve, but I have high hopes for this Friday and Saturday!

Joe.S has a great post on this thread: http://www.bassresource.com/bass-fishing-forums/topic/12403-jig-fishing-questions/

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Cheerleaders!

I know everyone has their favorite brands of soft plastics and some are cheaper than Rage Tail Baits. So what's the big deal? Try them for yourself and see. Let's start with just one bag of Rage Tail Craws in any color you like. Rig them as a jig trailer or "naked" on a 1/4 ounce 4/0 weighted hook or simply T-rigged. I look forward to the response, especially from those that have never tried the Craw!

That's right. Last year was a bust.

You're welcome! The jig bite will come to you, promise. :respect-059:

Nothin' new about that idea, but if you want rattles, buy lures with rattles...
