Best Plastic Lizards? 2024


fishing user avatarkatmandew reply : 

I used to use the berkley powerbait lizards with good success.  I still have some that are about 12 years old, but thinking I need to grab some new one's.  Wondering about the newer powerbait vs the rage tail lizards and zoom lizards (or any other brand).  What's your favorite brand of lizard and when do you use it the most?


fishing user avatarfstr385 reply : 

Ive only used zoom because they come in the colors I like, but they don't last through much. And the bigger size. Havent tried any others for a good opinion though, but these work.


fishing user avatarbassh8er reply : 

Zoom for this guy. Affordable and a great color selection.

I picked up some Rage Tail to try out this spring, and I'm sure they'll be successful as well.


fishing user avatarUncle Leo reply : 

Rage Tail but Zoom a close second.


fishing user avatarCrappiebasser reply : 

X3 for Zoom. Chartreuse Pumpkin is my favorite color.


fishing user avatarJaiden reply : 

I use Zoom also. Green pumpkin on a Carolina rig durring the spawn has always produced for me.


fishing user avatarCPBassFishing reply : 

I like the rage tail and powerteam lures lizards. The PTL ones have backwards legs and a stepped tail for moe action.


fishing user avatarDarren. reply : 

xN for Zoom. Wacky lizarding, man!!


fishing user avatarMCS reply : 

I use zoom 6" or big bite bait Kreit tail 8"

the zooms are more durable but the big bites are bigger for a good price when a bigger profile is wanted and they come scented.

But have had my eye on El Grande Gila monsters and Gila jrs. For a while and read in bassmaster that one of the pro likes them which makes them even more intriguing.


fishing user avatarDave P reply : 

Zoom green pumpkins.


fishing user avatareyedabassman reply : 

Zoom for me too! Colors depend on the time of day and water color for me!


fishing user avatarBk4 reply : 

Zoom Lizard is the way to go. Come's in variety size 4,5,6,8 and alot of color too.


fishing user avatarripinthem reply : 

Zoom, wieghtless  has the right fall rate...deadly in the spawn.


fishing user avatarFishes in trees reply : 

I haven't fished lizards much, but what fish I didi catch happened on a power bait lizard.  


fishing user avatarJSPOONE reply : 

rage tail junebug for me


fishing user avatarkatmandew reply : 

If you use zoom, do you add scent?


fishing user avatarJ.Bass reply : 

I like rage tail lizards. Zoom are good but make sure you scent them. The rage tail lizards tend to get beat up after a few hits from bass but the scent is amazing does bring the bass in.


fishing user avatarTuckahoe Joe reply : 

I use Zoom and I have a pack or 2 of the Berkley Powerbait ones but after trying some Rage Tail products for the first time recently (and really liking what I saw), I may have to try their lizards too.


fishing user avatarShane J reply : 

If you fish lizards, and you haven't tried the Rage Lizard, you are missing out. I have 1 wife, and 2 friends with PB's on the Rage Lizard, all rigged weightless on a 3/0 hook, summertime.


fishing user avatarQuillback reply : 

Zoom, baby, Zoom!


fishing user avatarfowlskies reply : 

I don't use a lizard as much as I should, but I have had a lot of luck with the pre-rigged Creme lizards on the two hook rig with the propeller  on the front.  Man when bass hit that thing they murder it.  I've also used the Berkley powerbait double tail lizard with success too.

 

I see that Yum has a new lizard out with paddletail feet and a paddletail tail that looks very interesting and I might have to try.  The problem is I already have more plastics than I'll use.


fishing user avatarSiebert Outdoors reply : 

I've used Zoom for years but I'm breaking out some Rage Lizards this year.  I like the look of them.


fishing user avatarB@ssCrzy reply : 

Zoom with some JJ's magic!!  Deadly!!


fishing user avatarMaico1 reply : 

Zoom and GYB but lean more to Zoom....may i also suggest Mossy Pumpkin.....http://zoombait.com/2009/05/mossy-pumpkin/


fishing user avatarroadwarrior reply : 

:easter-119: 

 

 

The Rage Tail Lizard has tremendous action.


fishing user avatarHyrule Bass reply : 

for me its rage tail with zoom a close second. i dont use scents and have had good success on both...


fishing user avatarJ Francho reply : 

I don't throw lizards too much, outside of prespawn and spawn. Zoom with a good smearing of Megastrike, and perhaps a chartreuse tail dip works for me.


fishing user avatarDiggy reply : 

Ive had great luck with zman lizardz in watermelon red. Caught over 50 fish on the same lizard. 

 

I also use zoom in junebug and have had great success

 

 

started with one of those walmart luck e strike 4 buck packs


fishing user avatarJake P reply : 

Not saying either is better cause that's personal opinion. Rage lizards have more action than any lizard ever invented in history. That's a Fact.


fishing user avatarkatmandew reply : 

Guess I'm gonna try some rage lizards, then. Thanks for all the input.


fishing user avatarTeal reply : 

Rage lizard.


fishing user avatarjerzeeD reply : 

Zoom 8" magnum blizzards in pumpkinseed, black emerald, or junebug for me.


fishing user avatardeaknh03 reply : 

I was a big fan of the zoom until Big O came along..


fishing user avatarBlues19 reply : 

I like Zoom Magnum lizards in Green Pumpkin when summer time night fishing. I wish Rage Tails had an 8" lizard.


fishing user avatarJeziHogg reply : 

Zman Lizards on a Carolina rig


fishing user avatarJellyMan reply : 

I use Zoom.
