I just got some of those whopper ploppers Friday and tried them out today. Had a couple huge blow ups but did get one that chased it violently and managed to get him to the boat.

I have some of the 90s. This is my first 130 size.  Like the previous post alludes, I sort of feel like a sheep getting played like investors on the wolf of wall street, but....I thought the same about the ned until I tried it. And if it is a total bust, maybe I can trade it on here for some senkos.☺

Haha I just found this thread a couple days ago and went through the entire thing LOL!

My next order should be here tomorrow!!!

I did too, got to use one this past Sunday. Had several big blow ups and one that committed violently. Didn't fish it long, but I believe it has its place in my arsenal.

I just got a pack of those YUM sinkos to try out. How are they compared to YAMASINKOS?

BOOYAH BOO JIG. My first proper jig That I am going to fish tomorrow morning and a few packs of hooks. The wife had me run out to get milk and cooking oil and I kinda just wondered over to the fishing stuff.:P

I've used them with an 0-Ring & 1/16oz Wacky Rig Hook. My experience - both have very similar action, YamaSinko has slightly more action but less durable, & the YumSinko has slightly less action but more durable. Results: Both baits work and catch fish.

Love those Booyah jigs. Got a bunch of them myself. The Gamakatsu hooks are great for the price. I can't afford Trokars prices so Gamakatsu is just as good as far as I'm concerned.

How do you rig those jig heads with the worms? Sorry if its a noob question but would the worm not be crooked because of the straight hook? I am new to bass fishing and want to fish my worms like this.

Is that a Zoom U-tail worm in the vid? I didn't think they floated seeing as they have lots of salt in them. The comments on the video don't tell what brand worm it is.

They look the same but I think that guy makes his own baits and is showing them off or something. I love the action of it though.

My first cave in to the bait monkey. Ordered some Ned rig tackle to replace my small box of stuff I lost the other day, and picked up some stuff at a couple tackle stores the wife let me visit today. I'm excited to try those Yamamoto swimbaits, they looked like they had great action. Oh yeah, got some drop shot stuff, I'm excited to try that out to.
