I just ordered a pack of Bombshell Turtles. Seems like the perfect bait to drop in the beds during the spawn. I'm curious if anyone here has experience with this bait. Not sure whether to t-rig it, of rig it on a swim bait hook. I even thought about the neko rig. Have you ever watched a turtle? They go almost completely vertical to swim down to the bottom. Anyhow, just curious what everyone has to say about it. Cheers!

I love the original wider shaped bombshell turtle! The new hybrid ones work okay but nothing compared to the originals. I just rig the on an offset wide gap hook with a 1/8 (or even two of those) free swinging weights type weights dangling on the bend of the shank. It creates an awesome fluttering action that does something different all the time. It will even dive at an angle at times and that works great at getting under some roots to over hanging structure. They just can't resist that delicate floating fall. I don't if they think they're eating a turtle I just know they like to eat it.
