The Menace and Cut-R are two of my favorites!

Recon 
daiwaguy reply :
I like the Menace as trailers on Spinnerbaits, swim jigs, and scroungers. I have really been wanting to try the recon worm.

I know...
The first run was not made to Big O's specifications.
The current formula is MUCH stronger.
Americanzero reply :
Man you had me all kinds of excited
Siebert Outdoors reply :
The Menace is my go to shaky bait. It looks like it wouldnt do much but that little guy flat catches fish.

Bass didn't seem to care!
I could throw that worm 24/7/365!
You know I'm a sucker for ring worms
Arv reply :
Recon is my favorite worm, easy
Smokinal reply :
That Menace looks like a good swim jig trailer.

I love the Zoom magnum 4" finesse on mine. When I want more action, I'll give these a try. Thanks Mike!
SpencerLittle reply :
The menace is alsome around grass on a jig as well. Anyone who punchs mats with a punch skirt would also be wise to put it on that setup as well.
SpencerLittle reply :
The recon worm just all around looks awesome.
tbone1993 reply :
Dont own a single rage tail bait. Im a Zoom, net bait, lake fork kind of guy. Have considered buying them but never pulled the trigger.
Gone_Phishin reply :
I am really hoping the DB craw will soon come in Blue Craw. I absolutely clean house using the Baby Rage Craw in that pattern.
Shane J reply :
Um, yes please! I use 'em all, but that Recon is my favorite worm.
Oh, and Gone_Phishin, I believe Blue Craw is one of the colors that the DB will be available in soon. One of my favorites, too, so I hear ya!
AK-Jax86 reply :
I wish that my local stores would carry more Rage Tail baits, more variety seems like they all carry the same few types and same colors.
CWB reply :
I think the Shellcracker is overlooked as a swimbait. Perfect for lakes that have an abundance of smaller bluegill to feed on.

That's the second best news I heard all day...the first being a rod tube arrived with a few sticks from the far East.

This is my wifes favorite bait. Ever since she threw one at Pickwick I can not get her to change from it. Even when fish are on a suspended jerkbait bite. All I hear is I want to throw that green and blue fishy.

LOL, Funny thing is I always know what lure she is talking about when she asks. She may not be lure name or tech savvy but she will put a hurting on the fish.

I wasn't poking fun. I should have been more clear about that.... I do home health physical therapy, and I use the term "butt cheek" for certain exercises, and I always tell my patients "that is the technical term we learned in school" ...so it really was an inside joke...with myself??? She knows what she wants, and you do too. I think it is great she goes fishing with you. My wife has no interest.
AQUA VELVA reply :
Was thinking about trying out the Rage Shad until I started reading a lot of negative customer reviews about how easy they tear up. At five bucks for a five pack, they aint cheap.
JeziHogg reply :
The menace rigged vertically on a swimjig is killer.
deaknh03 reply :
The menace rigged on a jackall wacky head and dragged and hopped on the bottom.
NEjitterbugger reply :
Rage Tail are my two middle names! I swear by these baits! The ratio of Rage Tail baits to all my other soft plastics has gotta be like 10:1!
It doesn't matter which one you throw they all do the job! Recon worm, Craw, and Smokin' Rooster are probably my favorite 3 but its hard to even choose a top 3.
They're the real deal!
bigfishbk86 reply :
The new rage bug should be coming out soon shouldn't it??
JaxBasser reply :
Love the Cut-R worm and the Recon. Dang bluegills keep taking the tail off the the Cut-R though.

The Rage Bug will be introduced at iCast. That bait is so money, it's not even funny. Me 'n Big O just had a field day on the fish with that thing, and OH, BABY!!!

Sounds very intriguing. Are there any photos of the Rage Bug?
Shane J reply :
Actually, there is. Mark Davis sorta let the cat out of the bag on this bait, but I'm not at liberty to post any photos of it yet, sorry. By the way, that's all Mark was throwing for the first two days at Seminole, and he's doing ok I'd say!

Found it. Man, that thing is going to be killer...can't wait to put one on a T-rig.

The Rage Tail swimbait!
Yeah, I said it. Go ahead and soak that all in. That is all.

Make it stop! Your killing me! (as I'm rocking back and forth with my hands over my ears) 
I seriously can't wait!
Shane J reply :
Haha! Unfortunately, the swimbait isn't coming out this year, so you won't be able to sneek a peek at that for quite some time.
FishinDaddy reply :
A white menace on a rage rig is a great bait.
Shane J reply :
Well, can't argue with that!
Smokinal reply :
^^^I think you should send a fellow New Englander a bag or 2 for some field testing...
Shane J reply :
You want some Menaces? Msg me your info. I'll set you up, bud, if you wanna try 'em out.
Shane J reply :
Oh, and here ya go, guys. Steve Posted the bait pic from Davis, so I don't think he'll mind me showin' you guys here.
We were using it in Blue Craw color with some red dye on one side, to make a Tequilla color, and running it on a 5/0 hook and pegged 5/8oz weight. Absolutely crazy!
Smokinal reply :
^^^Now THAT is sexy! Are those out yet?
Shane J reply :
No, they're not. Soon, though. And every other beaver-style bait, can go screw itself, because this one is IT!!
Ps- the commercial version of this bait, is 4"long.

Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near? Just like me they long to be close to you! 
McKinneyLonghorn reply :
This thread got me excited to try some Rage Tail baits. So far I have caught fish on the watermelon/red and black/blue Craws, as well as on the double header Space Monkey. I have some of the watermelon/red Cut-R worms that I am also looking forward to trying out. I am not too experienced fishing soft plastics but the Rage baits are definitely as advertised in my opinion.

I actually started singing out loud.
boostr reply :
Now a question, what is this suppose to imitate?
roadwarrior reply :
I think the category would be considered "creature bait".
It doesn't necessarily represent any particular forrage.
dday07 reply :
Without a doubt...the Menace is go to bait in any small lake/quarry fishing trip i'm on...t-rigged or on a finesse jig

Craw. I use the beaver style baits as jig trailers, t-rig, jika rig, punchbait, swim jig trailer. The applications are endless.
Montanaro reply :
It's a craw/beetle/frog/baitfish/lizard
kickerfish1 reply :
I have yet to find a Rage product I didn't care for. This new bait should be a favorite for me as I am a huge fan of baits like the SK Rodent and the RI Beaver.
I would love to see a Rage tail Soft swim bait in a 4 inch size with a paddle tail and a few finesse options for light line applications like a drop shot or split shot rig but I am sure they are on the way or have at least been discussed.
Derriick reply :
Im really excited about a new rage creature bait myself.
Trying to decide which one i will use between this and the space monkey. They both have similar profiles being 4" with a football shaped body, small arms and bigger flappers on the end.
The action on this new creature bait will be the deciding factor for me. They may have 2 totally different actions that will fill different roles. Here is a comparison picture.

Try a Ragetail Toad, best topwater lure I've ever used.
Choporoz reply :
I was the one who'd roll his eyes frequently whenever I'd see a certain fisherman answer "Rage" to every single question - lol....No more.
I spent 6 hrs fishing each of Saturday and Sunday on three different bodies of water. Every single fish I caught was on a watermelon Cut-R. Unbelievable. One fish under 1.5...all the way up to a PB 6.83. I only had one package - first time using them. They lasted extremely well. And when they were all gone, I thought; "I haven't caught a single fish on anything else - What am I going to do now?" So, I cut off the hook-worn top of a Cut-R and slid the working portion that was left onto a swim jig head.....and proceded to go back to catching bass. Unbelievable. Now I've got a ten pound worm binder full of plastics I'll never touch after I hit TW for Rage stuff.
Now...on the other hand, my wife and I did spend an hour or two in the lily pads and threw frogs - she threw Rage and I tossed an old 'Snag-Proof'. Neither one of us hooked up, but I had at least a dozen blow-ups and her toad had exactly none. I don't know which is worse...or better....lol....I either need a new frog or I'm seriously in need of some remedial lessons on how to set the hook using a frog.
Any way, I'm sold....and headed over to TW

Any chance we see a Baby DB Craw in the future?

I just received 2 packs of DB Craws this week, I'm going out tomorrow and I'm really excited about trying them. I think I'm going to use them as a jig trailer tomorrow but I know sooner rather than later I'll use them as a flip/punch bait. I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up liking these more than the Rage Craw.
roadwarrior reply :
The Bug will be available in a couple of weeks.
Primus reply :
I have not fished my Cut R worms yet as most of my fish have come on swimbaits/ jerkbaits and traps so far this season. May I ask of the guys fishing the Cut R worms how are you rigging it, size of weight , retrieve etc ? I have a few ideas but I'm curious to what has been successful so far. Thanks
roadwarrior reply :
T-rigged, 1/4 bullet weight, tail down.
Let the Cut-R settle to the bottom, then
retrieve slowly, just off the bottom.
Choporoz reply :
Deadly weightless, tossed into cover and slowly twitched and jerked back to boat. And/or retrieved slowly just under the surface. The tail has great action even with real slow retrieve

I recently purchased a pack myself. I am going on a smally/wally trip next month, and I am going to give the DB Craw a thorough workout in our cold waters.

I did use them as a jig trailer on my trip and I got quite a few bites. I was expecting them to have more action than they actually do but they are a very interesting bait none the less. Sometime in the not so distant future I'm going to flip with them and see how that goes. I'm thinking they have "just enough" action to be very effective here, I'm just not sure that I'm fishing them to their full potential just yet but I'm sure I'll find the sweet spot.
Good luck on your trip.
macmichael reply :
I was lucky enough to get some of these baits at the road trip. Thanks to Big O and Jeff.. Now that I know how to rig em
I will start using them soon. Thanks for the tip RW on rigging them.

They are available for pre order at tw!
Montanaro reply :
I see the bug is listed at 3 inches
Dbomb are 4.
Is the bug undersized for a purpose?
Siebert Outdoors reply :
Would you all want me to offer a pre order? It can be easily done.

I do need some more of your gear...

I was thinking this, too. I love the space monkey. Perhaps my favorite Rage Tail bait.

The bug has ribs and has slimmer profile.
