Favorite Soft Plastic?

Featured Replies

What's your favorite soft plastics? I usually use a light green 6" zoom worm, Texas rigged. I've been trying tube baits for smallish lately and I'm really starting to like them!!

    I like almost all soft plastics and often just use whatever tickles my fancy .The two that I have caught the most on are Mann's 6 inch Jelly worms and the old BPS Squirmin Lizard. The old Squimin Liza

Whichever one is getting bit. If I had a favorite it would be RI sweet beaver in gp.

As long as they catch bass I like all of them.

Too many to mention but here are a few.

 

1. Reaction Innovations sweet and smallie beaver. (black/red, fried watermelon, black light, houdini)

 

2. Reaction Innovations skinny dipper. (bull frog, houdini, and bad shad green)

 

3. Zoom, dead ringers(red/shad, black, watermelon) finesse and magmun finesse(black, houdini, and redbug)

Rage Craw, Havoc Pit Boss, Zoom Trick Worm, Zoom Ol' Monster, Zoom Baby Brush Hog, Zman Diesel MinnowZ, Netbait B bug. There's seriously way too many that I like to narrow it down much.

As mentioned - the choices are almost endless and on any given day several can be anyone's favorite.

 

But to narrow it down, for me - the versatility and ability to consistent get bit makes the SK Rage Craw / Lobster a real fan favorite.  A 10 inch Black Berkley Power Worm comes in at a close second.

 

My wife will tell you that if she absolutely HAD to catch a bass - she'd be throwing a 4 inch *** Trick Stick in the unusual but seriously effective Phantom color.  And I'd be reaching for the net - again.

Have any of you used the Berkeley 4" baby bass? I have it in my tackle box and Ive been wanting to try it out for a while

Favorite?  A ringed Curly tail worm made by a small maker here in Missouri.  I probably have more Havoc Pit Boss than anything, though.  Great baits, work well and are cheap.  Got a ton of senko's, too.

The old Squimin Lizard I like to use when bites are light because it is shiny and smooth and shows teeth marks well . The Guido bug is another one that shows teeth marks well .

I HATE SOFT PLASTICS !

 

But, if I have to fish with a soft plastic you´ll see me fishing a Zoom Trickworm most of the times.

Anything roboworm. They've quickly become one of my favorites. Followed by 3 and 4 inch swim and regular senkos and fluke Jr's. Lake fork baby shads on a small ball jig are also always on hand.

I've been using Zoom Magnum Speed Worms lately. So versatile. I usually fish them weightless either on top or just let them sink.

-Senkos.

-Regular old grubs on a plain jig head.

-Creme Scoundrel and Angle worms (rigged by me, rather than pre-rigged).

-Tubes that I stuff so they float as topwaters (a new favorite of mine).  I guess the smallmouth think some type of "freshwater squid" is struggling on the surface :)

 

Really though there are just so many soft plastics that work...and almost infinite ways to rig and fish them successfully.

Case plastics buzzin frog. Gotta love it because it'll float a 5/0 ewg.

I like Zoom Magnum Trick Worms/Black on a stand up jig head

I like Culprit/Zoom 10-12 in. worms texas rig or wieght less

I might throw a Horny Toad over shallow grass if bass are aggresive.

Yum christie critter!

Number one for me is a tube, super versatile bait. Hop it on the bottom to imitate craws or swim it to imitate baitfish.

Second is a 5" Kalins grub. They have a super soft tail that moves at very slow retrieve speeds.

The rest I will use whatever is working, worms, craws, etc and when that stops I rig up numbers 1 and 2.

Curious that I didn't see the hot rig on the boards mentioned yet?

If we're talking worms it would be a black Mann curly tail. I've been throwing them since 1983.

I've caught many Lunkers with them.

Culprit would be second place finisher.

Texas rigged with a True Turn hook and a sliding bullet weight.

I usually keep coming back to the original 5" Senko. I also like the Fat Ikas and Sweet Beavers.
