Grandebass Plastics

Featured Replies

Has anyone ever tried these baits and what do you think about them?

In my opinion, virtually all soft plastics catch fish, although I'm not saying they're all created equal. Looking at these, I see no reason why these would be an exception. For example, their beaver knockoff, the Beav'r Claws, probably wouldn't look much different to the bass than the original thing.

 

If I used them I'd have no more or less confidence in them than with similar lures.

Yes. They are great, but Rage tails are waaay better. :eyebrows:

Seriously though I love, LOVE them as much as LMG loves Shimano. The rattlesnake, junebug redflake is my number one and trophy hunter is a close second favorite color. They produce some big fish for me, fish in profile pic is a victim. Fish weightless or with a 1/16 or 1/8 oz bullet weight, flipped to structure, hopped, dragged, swam. they have a nice gentle lazy wiggle to them, I use them any condition any time of the year. They are nice weedless because you can hook the rings, they do tear since it is a thinner area the hook is in, but the plastic they are made of is pretty durable not that soft, average 3-4 fish on them. They are scented too. The megtails are good too, I gave a pack to my buddy in red bug and he is a believer now.

I'm a big fan of the Rattlesnakes, Honchos and  Mutants.  They make a nice bait with a good scent.

The Rattlesnakes and baby rattlesnakes are a favorite of mine to use for carolina rigs.  They caught me some nice size fish.  And they do have a VERY pungent garlic odor

Their 4.5  and their 6.5 Rattlesnakes are fantastic.  

 

The baits have a TON of action and a very potent garlic scent. Though the 6.5 is a good thick profile worm (though its actually pretty skinny), it has a wonderful shimmy to it and works great on a shakey head as well.  I mostly texas rig them with an unpegged bullet weight, but they also do great on carolina rig and drop shot.  Regardless of the technique, I always run the hook through the head, come back through the body and texpose the hook, never hooking it wacky style.  Many people wacky rig them and have success, but I can't seem to do well with them that way for some reason.  One technique that you dont see them used often with is a drop shot, but a slight jiggle of the rod tip creates a lot of action with these baits on a drop shot and has resulted in some good limits.

I have used the mutant in the past, I bought a couple of packs on clearance. Good action, caught some fish, but boy do they smell strongly!
