Soft plastic Go-To bait other then a senko/stick 2024


fishing user avatarBassFishingMachine reply : 

What would you say your Go-To soft plastic bait is, please exclude the senko or any other stick bait, just too many people use them and im starting to get bored of em. So I was wondering which softbait worked best for you other then the stickbait category. Mine would have to be a 4inch Powerworm in either Camo or Red Shad.


fishing user avatarguest reply : 

7 inch ripple tail worm in pumpkin seed or watermellon ;)


fishing user avatarcajun1977. reply :

fishing user avatarJeff H reply : 

Kind of a seasonal thing... but anyway, this time of year??  I guess since my go to bait is a 1/2 oz jig it would have to be the Powercraw or Producto craw I stick on the jig.

fishing user avatarFishing Doug reply : 

super fluke....love that bait.  very versatile.


fishing user avatarRaul reply : 

Don 't have a particular "go-to" soft plastic bait, I like straight tail worms ( trickworms or jelly worms ), 5 " grubs, ribbontail worms, U tail worms, creatures ( lizards, hogs, craws ), tubes, french fries .... it really depends on what and where I 'm going to fish.

Senkos ? hmmm, very ocassionally I tie a senko, so ocassionally that lemme remember when it was the last time I purchased a bag of senkos ........ in August 2 years ago, couldn 't leave them 4" firetiger color, it looked so nice, bought a pack, still have 8 baits.


fishing user avatar.ghoti. reply : 

When it's time to fish plastics, which is about 90% of the time for me, I have these setups rigged at all times.

1. 5/0 EWG hook, unweighted 5" senko

2. 4/0 EWG hook, Fat Ika, reverse rigged, weightless

3. T-rig, 1/4oz weight, 5/0 EWG hook, GYCB Cuttail worm, 10" Power worm or Power Hawg

4. Ike's Spike jighead , 7" Power worm ( call it a shakey head if you must ) or Slim Sticko

5. 3/0 Owner Rig'n hook, unweighted Super Fluke or 4" Senko ( the only spinning rod in the mix )

6. 3/0 EWG hook, internally weighted Zoom tube

This gives me options to cover most every condition I encounter. I have lots of other plastics, which come out of the bags when nothing else is working, but the ones listed above are my go-to baits.

Cheers,

GK


fishing user avatarSiebert Outdoors reply :

fishing user avatarjeepcrazy reply : 

Fat Ika.  No question about it!


fishing user avatarskillet reply : 

 I like Brush Hogs and Baby Brush Hogs in green pumpkin, 3/16 to 1/4 oz. weight and T-rigged...

                                                As Ever,

                                                 skillet


fishing user avatarDan: reply : 

lately my go to has been a Case Sinking Salty Shad which is a soft jerkbait much like the Zoom Fluke. Also I've been using a lot of finesse worms on shakey head jigs, specifically a Case Jack's worm or a Zoom finesse worm in brown and green colors.


fishing user avatarsnapperd1 reply : 

4" hula grub fished on 1/2oz football jig head in a brown black flake color.

fishing user avatarCatt reply : 

#1 Texas Rigged Gene Larew 7 ½ Salty Ring Worm Cinnamon Pepper Neon/June Bug Laminated (Camouflage).


fishing user avatarTpayneful reply : 

If all else fails I go to a 6 inch straight tail Roboworm, Texas rigged with a 1/8 weight.  It catches every DINK with-in 1 square mile!


fishing user avatarrebelbasspro reply : 

When I'm in a bind and need to catch five I'll go with a texas rigged zoom centipede on 10lb flurocarbon.


fishing user avatarC.K reply : 

For the price, it's hard to beat Zoom 6" Super Salt Plus U-Tale worms. Texas rigged and junebug in color is a deadly combination.


fishing user avatarMobydick reply : 

Zoom super fluke. Either weightless or some splitshots. Arkansas shiner color.


fishing user avatarCK14 reply : 

smallmouth: dropshot GYCB 3.5" cut tail worm, 240.

largemouth: Zoom baby brush hog, green pumpkin.


fishing user avatarFishTank reply : 

For me, in order

1) Fat Ika

2) GYCB Kreature

3) Zoom Lizards


fishing user avatarKy_Lake_Dude reply : 

When all else fails tie on a spot remover jighead with a Reaction Innovations Flirt,


fishing user avatarGorgebassman reply : 

I actually have 2 and couldnt decide which was my favorite so they are a zoom super fluke or a tube bait.
