Featured Replies

Hey guys, im wondering if lizards are good for bass. If it is, could u tell me your greatest succes colour and stuffs like. ill probably texas rig it.

Thanks

    Lizards are the best Carolina-Rig bait for me.  I like to use a Zoom 6" pumpkin color lizard with the tail of the lizard dyed chartreuse.

Had good success with the Rage Tail Lizards during the spawn... Watermelon and Double Header worked well

C-rigged works great in sizes 6in and up.  Try mojo rigging or split shoting a 4in also.  The colors that I use the most are watermelon and green pumpkin.  

ZOOM 6" in watermelon/chart is deadly on my lakes! Anytime of the year except winter(as if there is such a thing in FL)!

I like a 4" Zoom Green Pumpkin Lizard on a shakey head or drop shot. Deadly in the spring.

Ragetail Ragetail Ragetail.

Watermelon/Red Flake or Green Pumpkin.

T-rig with as little weight as you can get away with. I like to fish them on Charlie Brewers Super Spider heads, 1/16 oz EWG.

The bait comes alive. Also have had success using Evo Shakee2 heads in 3/16 oz.

6'' Zoom watermelon seed lizard. I rig it texas with a 1/4 or 1/2 oz weight.  pop it off the bottom and had great results doing it.   :). Have fun!

The Yum Zellamander is the best lizard I've ever fished.  I have about 200 packs of Wave Worm lizards, and they are a good standard lizard.  Much like a zoom or any other brand of lizard.  Even with my large stash of lizards...I've been buying the Zellamander.  It has a long twin tail that is unlike other lizards, and gets more bites.  Dark grasshopper is the best color bar none.

For 6" lizards ZOOM is the only way to go MOSSY PUMPKIN :). For 8" lizards Big Bite Baits kreit tail lizards at academy. watermelon red. for the big boys Strike King Iguana 10" junebug or grn pumpkin. Also gene larew Biffle o lizards rock 2.

You can not beat a T-Rigged Zoom lizard :) Anything in junebug works great around here

I like a 4" Zoom Green Pumpkin Lizard on a shakey head or drop shot. Deadly in the spring.

X2 This is my go to finesse bait.

with all these guys posting in on the lizard you can see that its a pretty hot thing. I'm also down with it.

a texas rig pumkinseed char. 6in lizard is a great flipping bait. I like the heavier size of things so I go for a 3.8oz

I've also experimented with c-rigs last year and had good success from a 4in lizard  (spotted bass) all the way to 10in lizard (guntersville). everyone should learn it

A lizard is just a great year round bait. definately pick one up one day

On my lake I have TONS of lizards.  Almost an excessive amount of them.  I've caught most of my large fish on a weightless t-rigged zoom 6" lizard.  I mainly work it like a topwater bait. On occasion I'll let it drop a few foot down and just give it a slow retrieve similar to a super fluke.  The best fishing I've ever had with a lizard has been at night using a seven or eight inch glow in the dark chart w/black flake lizard.  I've caught some 20+ pound catfish on them and a whole mess of 7+ pound bass.  I've probably got more lizards in my garage than anything else....

tx. rigged or carolina rigged colors for me green punk. and black or white,best time spawn time get them lizards in the beds and the bass will kill that thing thinking its coming in to feed on the eggs

For me its the zoom 6" cherry seed lizard Texas rigged with a small weight     1/8 oz depending on the wind

Look into Strike King Iguana and Gene Larew Biffle O lizards. I fish the Iguana yesterday on a c rig and those things float up to a vertical position.If you have an Academy around look at the Big Bite Baits Kriet tail 8" lizards.

I used to have very good luck with chart/pumpkin zoom lizards in both 4" and 6".
