    I prefer tail down to avoid fouling the hook. I also like long wispy tails. So, I clip 4" worms w/tails off to 2"-3" depending on water clarity and depth. I'll clip them on a slight angle to improve glide or drop rates. (Thank you Malcolm Lane) White Bass, LM Bass & Crappie seem to like salt & pepper the best.

    The grub is completely under appreciated. Trailer for anything,swimbait,Neko,Texas rig,and so much more. The best grub I’ve used so far is the gander Mtn grub. It has a little arm on it to make it weedless on a ball head. Zoom is the other one and zman has a good one too.

I spoke about the curly tail last year. It was a video called “don’t forget about the curly tail.“ I emphasized a lot of points that you made such as this bait is one of the most successful baits in bass fishing but it is hardly highlighted. 👏🏿👏🏿🎣

  • @MrMichaelDodd
    @MrMichaelDodd Год назад +2

    In my heart, it will always be a Mr. Twister. 😀 I fish in very clear water and love their versitility when I am in area with diverse type of bottom or cover. Drag it, snap it, swim it, vertical jig it, jigworn in the weed, etc. If I am not just working a reaction bite, my most successful method is a natural color (baby bass is a great one) on a swim, kill, short drag retrieve. Unless I am on a muddy bottom, I get most of my fish on long kills (maybe 20 seconds). Seizdcaracass mentioned zman. Would love to try something buoyant that would stand up on the pause. Elaxtech might help with my number grub problem: bluegill and sunfish biting off the tail. I would fish it a lot more if I didn't have to be replacing baits all the time.

    When I started fishing back in the 80s ALL we used was grubs...I always assumed that grubs were THE go to lure for bass and other panfish for everyone...it is only in the past few years when I started watching online fishing content that I was shocked to discover how few people use them. Sure, there are other lures that work better in certain situations, but when in doubt you can't go wrong with a grub.

    • @BassGeek
      @BassGeek  4 месяца назад

      Weight and reel speed is key. First You want to go as light as possible for the depth. You might want to tick the bottom but not drag it. Weight vs depth will be the first thing you’ll need to manage lighter weight for shallower water. If your moving the bait haw fast you reel is key also. If your on the bottom a lot reel faster or lighten the weight.

    I wish I could load a picture. I have a 3" pumpkin pepper mister twister on a 3/8 Oz ball head on a rod right now. I tear smallies and walleye ( occasionally a pike) up in front of my dad's cabin on the rip rap. Kind of a family fave among my dad and uncles.
    I always throw it on a baitcaster and always put the curl on the same side as the hook point. I switch the retrieve up until I figure out how they want it.

    I use grubs all season. From ice out to till it freezes. I catch a ton of smallmouth and a lot of accidental walleye not complaining about that. But they catch alot of big smallies. I catch alot of largemouth in cold water too.

    I'm thinking if you had access to one of those pliers to stretch them open and the little rubber bands they use them on for castrating sheep, you should be able to clamp a grub or any soft plastics to the shaft of the hook permanently
