Yamamoto Kut tail worm??

Featured Replies

What ways do you guys rig?

also what size?  Thinking of Texas rigging and shakey head the 6.75 size.

I throw the 4 inchers on a 1/8 oz jig head or drop shot rig when the bite slows or if I just want to put someone on fish. Smoke/blk flake is killer out here in the gin clear lakes. Never tried the 6.75's, but I imagine they'd work well with the techniques you're planning.

Pro Slider head is a killer head for the Kut tails. 

agree on slider heads, they give a nice glide while the tail flickers...You can't really fish it wrong, like most GYB baits, they catch fish and the Kut Tail is a great worm. Experiment and have fun...I split shot rig alot of finesse style baits & slowly reel since that tail is good for this time of year, but GYB worms all seem to have awesome action when the fall naturally....

Are the slider heads the one that look like pegged Texas rigs?  I'm somewhat familiar but find ones that look like tube heads and/or ball heads and ones that look like pegged rigs called spider slider heads. Which ones are you guys talking about?

These are the Pro Series, which come with a heavier hook than the standard Slider heads.

What's the advantage of useing these instead of a pegged bullet weight of the same weight?Seems these would get hung up more if swimming through grass, or are you useing these in open water. 

Just wondering

I'm using them in rocks and sand, little bit or wood.

At one of my local lakes a 3.5"-4" Kut Tail in any shade of green on a dropshot is my #1 fish catcher.  There are other baits I like and mix them in for variety, but I've caught more fish on a kut tail on a dropshot than any other bait.  Haven't tried rigging them any other way.

They are one piece so you don't have to full with multiple pieces like bobber stop, bullet weight, hook.

Personally I like Owner ultrahead bullet one better.

I used the 6.75 Kut tail a lot this year.  A lot.  Almost always simply rigged it w/ a 3.0 Gamakatsu EWG hook.  No weight.  It's heavy enough for a good cast and you can literally cast it anywhere.  You can twitch it through wood, crawl/skip it over weeds, anything.  And it caught fish reliably all year... until now.  Water has dropped into the 40s.  But I'm still not sure if the bait quit working or I just haven't found the fish.  Likely the latter.
