Favorite Soft Plastic??

Featured Replies

Hey guys, what brand of soft plastic (and bait) do you guys use the most?

I use mostly zoom products...they are cheap and pretty durable...another I like is gary yamamoto but they are expensive...ive also been buying some of the berkley havac baits but haven't got to try any of those out yet

Yamamoto Senko - Black last season.  I began experimenting with making my own so maybe that will change.

I have been buying Zoom, BPS, Powerbait/Havoc baits mostly.  I buy one of the more expensive brands when I can't find the right color from the other brands.

GYCB Senkos...generally watermelon. This year I do plan on throwing a greater variety but I doubt that the Senko is going to stop being a mainstay of my plastics.

Rage Tail, and probably use the Craws the most.

Grande bass Rattlesnake in junebug is the one for me. Bitters and Gambler for everything else, flukes, trick worms, ribbon tails, lizards, sticks.

GYCB Senkos...generally watermelon. This year I do plan on throwing a greater variety but I doubt that the Senko is going to stop being a mainstay of my plastics.

My sentiments exactly. But I also plan to branch out this year and try a wider range of plastics. That will include new colors and different sizes of Senkos (other than 5") as well as other types of baits and other manufacturers.

Between GYCB Senkos and Zoom Finesse worms. Huge producers for me. Bass Pro Stik-o worms have done well, too.

If I had to narrow down my plastics selection I could get by fine with baits from just Zoom and NetBait. I use numerous baits from a lot of different companies though so trying to put my finger on one would be almost impossible. Time of year affects which plastics I throw so it would always be changing with the seasons.  

Last year for me, by far the rage tail 7" thumper. Of course last year was my first year really bass fishing. I've picked up several types of worms and creature baits for this upcoming season based off of these forums. Netbait, Culprit, GY senko's, and of course Rage tail are the brands I've picked up.

I own more Grandebass plastics than all of my others combined. Great baits, especially the megatail rattlesnakes and mega claws. Love the Trophy Hunter color.

Depends on the season and technique. I guess I have the most Strike King/Rage plastics than any other. I would say Zoom and Roboworm would be a close second.

strike king rage craws and rodents are my go to soft plastics but zoom flukes and lizards are right up there.

Worms: Berkley Havoc Bottom Hoppers (trick worms) and Berkley Havoc Juice Worms (ribbontail)

Craws: Berkley Powerbait Chigger Craw

Swimbaits: Berkley Havoc Subwoofer (moves a ton of water)

 

See a trend? lol. The only other brands I consistently use are Zoom for flukes and tubes and Yum for stick baits.

Big Bite Baits Yo Daddy craws, Coontails and Warmouths. GYB Senkos, Hag's F series tornados, and Grandebass Mutants for creature baits. Can't forget about the Zoom flukes or MegaStrike megabugs either.

Zoom Lizard and Zoom Trick Worm in green pumpkin.  Caught most of my fish last year on these two.  Great baits.

Yum Dingers and Zoom baby brush hogs.

Reaction Innovations for their skinny dipper and sweet beaver.

I like the Net Bait Paca Craw and Paca Chunks for jigs

YUM and Zoom for the varieties of senkos and worms

Yeah, Zoom and Robo are my favorites too. The website I do all my online shopping on started carrying Zoom plastics. I honestly didnt know Zoom made so many diff colors and baits. The guys over the website told me that they had every bait in every color zoom makes, and from looking at it, they do. lol

Last Year my go to Plastic was Caffeine Shads tore them up all year long

Maybe it was because of the heat and the drought, but last year I did a lot better on hard baits than with plastics.  That said, the plastic I had the best luck with was a Zoom Super Hog.
