Man I’ve thrown the Yamamato Uni, the Hags Prickly Pear, and the Berkley Maxscent Moeba on three different lakes up shallow and over suspended bass.. in green, black, and red.. light weight and 3/8oz weights.. I can’t trigger a bite to save my life.. What gives? lol

All the hype and marketing makes it sound like a "magic lure". There's no such thing.

you got that right.. Seriously though how are you guys catching fish on these things.. I know people are.. I’ve done the jerk, jerk pause retrieve.. i’ve tried it all.. it just doesn’t click with me yet for some reason…

About the only real luck I’ve had with them is on an inchi wacky jighead with a pop/sink retrieve - and mostly dinks hitting it. Had a few on a dropshot and a couple hit it dead sticking it weightless, but definitely not enough to warrant the hype for me.

Tried it on a few lakes, only real success was on a grass lake, fished with a 3/0 flipping hook, 3/32oz tungsten nail, baitcaster, retrieved like a jerkbait or soft fluke. Jerk.... jerk jerk..... jerk. Fish around docks or other hard structure seems to be key as well.

What’s the deal? They’re supposed to like the micro organism the bass we’re eating as fry and now they still react to the shape?

I resisted long enough but I just caved and ordered a prickly pear...we'll see.
