Caught my first monster on this bait today rigged on a 1/2 oz ShakE2.
Although the green fish seem to like the tube, me thinks the little brown
fish will like it even more!
I can't get the wind to die down enough around here to even try and throw a tube.
Which color tube did you use?
Green Pumpkin/ Orange
Those are the same two I got. Hopefully I will get the chance these days off.
How do you like to rig them on the shakE2?
The weight on the head, tentacles up. Bobby designed the bait with a shallow slot to line up the hook.
It works PERFECTLY!
The Brown truck is bringing me some Wednesday and I'm going fishing all day fri-sun!

The tube is very soft and hollow. It compresses extremely flat with the hook shaft when you get a bite. You don't even have to texpose the hook point as the tube has a recess it sits in and is basically weedless.
ah man, I see the word monster and just KNOW there is gonna be a pic.......... I hastily scroll and nothing. Its like being a cubs fan I tell ya!

So.....no pics?
Here's a pic for ya, Wayne.
I'd go for that if it had a Megastrike tube hanging from its beak.
I see "monster," I want a picture.
Let me tell ya -I was out the other day and I got some good ones on the green pumpkin tube -I was skipping them under docks and trees with a 3/16 shakey2 head-Just felt the weght and bam set the hook. Nice three and four pounders. gotta love it
Been in a funk lately, I'd gladly take a day like that Bobby.

No, but I have an idea...
Next spring maybe you and I can be partners for at least a day. I'll do all the fishing
and try to snag some goodens, bigguns or good ole bigguns. If we have any luck you
will be in charge of the camera and the net. You can hold the fish and weigh it, too!
You bring the beer from PA and I will continuously test it to make sure it doesn't spoil so
none will go to waste.
Don't thank me now.
Look, I know you can catch fish. I've seen your leatherbound book, so I know there is at least a chance of you taking a picture and not melting.
IIRC, we shared a boat on a pretty tough day on Guntersville. That didnt turn out too well for either of us. Missing trolling motor prop ring a bell?
Yes sir, it does.
The fall/ winter smallmouth season is about to get underway around here.
I hope to post some quality pictures soon. The biggest issue for me taking
pictures on the ponds is that I am usually there alone. I have taken a couple
with the fish on the grass, but that just doesn't do the fish justice. However,
you have successfully busted my chops. The next decent fish will be posted.

p.s. Have you ever caught a fish on that bluegill I sent you?
Atta boy.
Now we're getting somewhere.
I didnt see that last part about the bluegill.
Of course I have. Those soft bluegills pull most of their duty on beds. If I'm swimming them, it's a Hardgill.
Do you fish it the same as you would a worm on a shakey head?
I fished it slow, moving just a few inches at a time and lifting it occasionally
with the rod tip.
