Default Beaver Baits

If there is one bait I have fallen in love with it is most deinfitley the Sweet beaver. I had quite a few dang good days with them on my local reservoir, tom the run, pitching them up shallow in willow bushes. I rig the on a 2/0 J Bend Gammy, 3/16 oz Bulet weight, 50 lb Spider Wire Steatlh. The next type of beaver I am gonna learn how to use is the Double Wide by Reaction Innovations. My biggest fish on a beaver is around 3 lbs. Anyone else have good luck wih tthese baits? Anyone here like the Smallie beaver?

Default yep

I sell a beaver bait that I use all the time. t-rg, or as a jig trailer if im looking for a huge profile bait. Smallies do love em too.
Great baits. With that said, I think every bait can be great if you find confidence in it.

I've tried the beavers, even MMiB's, it's not their fault, I just don't like it that much, and don't know why. I've caught some really nice fish on them, I just prefer a brushhog style bait.

I do love the smallie beaver on a Spot Remover

They got into some legal trouble with either alabama lakes or carolina chip a few years back, I believe. Some of the old guys will remember....

I agree. The pink beaver rules!

I also like the bearded clam, cametoe, and peachbottom.

Powerbass, I must admit, I don't fish the beaver or the pacas. I think I may have some in my tackle bag but to be honest, I can't figure how to rig em'. Can you scan a pic of how you rig em? Anyone? Anyone?

It's not as grand as it seems, we get one aisle, and as much trout gear as we have bass gear (last I looked, Raleigh ain't nowhere near a trout stream...), but it's something

Whats a spot remover? I almost ordered some of those from mmib, (beavers) but didn't have the money. I will next time, what colors do you use? I can see using them with a heavy weight, and punching through heavy hydrilla working real good.....

If you order Reaction Innovations, i like Green Goby, and Hematoma. If you have heavy Hydrilla and big bass, step her up to the Doubel Wide Beaver in Hematoma ,4/0 EWG Superline Gammys, 3/8 oz Tungsten(to start, and move up to 1 and 1/2 oz if neccesary)

If youroder from custom hand pour companies, MMiB, are yours flat sided on one side? or both sided are ribbed and fullly round? I like Black Blue Fleck from BNB baits.

MMIB's bait are fully rounded and ribbed, and by far the best soft plastics I have ever used. For the price of one bag of senkos, you can have 2 bags of theirs, and they work better.
