Let the BaitMonkey take that decission.

Check out their "Top Sellers" list. It's usually filled with reliable lures that put fish in the boat, and the list tends to change with seasonal patterns.

what type of shaky heads? what worms?

Catch and Grease reply :

I recently bought some megastrike ShakE 2 Pro series shaky heads and they are great. You can use baits that don't float very well with them because they are so good at standing up. For worms to use with it, there are so many choices I don't know where to start. You can try the tried and true trick worm or maybe try a worm I just recently bought called the tattletail worm. It works wonders in a Shakey head.

Really? I need someone to tell me what NOT to get. This site is TERRIBLE about feeding the bait monkey.

thanks. what color and weight do u recommend?

Catch and Grease reply :

The lake I fish has a little more thick grass than other lakes so I have been using the 1/4 alot lately with success but use the lightest weight you can get away with. As for colors of worms, for low vis/muddy water go with bright colors and for clear water go for natural colors. Some people prefer dark colors in low vis water and that works to but I just prefer bright colors

EDIT: If your looking for specific colors I like chartreuse, green pumpkin, black, June bug, yellow, and brighter greens those are some of my favorites but almost any color will catch a fish eventually just some can be more ideal at times.

Thanks! and what about the color of the jighead itself? black, brown or green pumpkin

Catch and Grease reply :

I just match the cover I'm fishing... Like with a grassy bottom I like green, rocks or timber I like brown... Idk I've never thought much about the jig color or if it makes much a difference...

ColdSVT reply :

I need to have frogs, beavers, sammy, jigs, and cranks...gotta gotta have em on deck all the time lol

Scorchx1245 reply :

I got into the drop shotting, great for clear water and pressured lakes. I'm trying out the shaky head tomorrow for the first time.

Smallmouth Hunter reply :

Save your money for when you actually need something or else the bait monkey will lose control and activate protocol Z Type RT9, AKA Operation J2 Candlewick.

***You have been warned. I have gone down that path and it isn't fun for your wallet.***

J Francho reply :

"Must have" really depends on what and where you fish. A general selection, from top, middle, to bottom:

Hollow frogs, spook type baits, poppers, buzzbaits, toads.

Spinnerbaits, casting spoons, chatterbait/bladed jigs, squarebills, paddle tail swimbaits, swimjigs, traps, suspending jerk baits.

Diving crankbaits, plastics and terminal tackle for T/C/Jika/drop shot rigs, jigs, senkos, wacky jigs and finesse worms, jigging spoons.

That's pretty much my entire tackle selection, BTW.

I have pretty much all of this stuff now. This thread is from June 2014, some time ago.

J Francho reply :

You think you're the only one that reads these threads? For every one guy that posts a question, there's 40-50 lurkers, wondering the same thing.

SirSnookalot reply :

I have a little bit of just about everything. Only 2 must have lures for me, flukes when I need to fish weedless and a top water chug a bug, I get the most enjoyment from them. The Storm is so banged up it has no color, haven't had the need to use a new one yet, lol.
