6in Tiki Verses 6in Culprit

River stumps · 08-20-05, 08:22 PM

My friend an I fished the Alagator River today. I used a dozen or so Tikis, My friend used not as many culprit. I caught five Bass, two were keepers. My friend caught five Bass, three were keepers. So today the fish did not like the tiki any better than the culprit. I tried to win my friend over, but failed. I think we both will be using culprit from now on. They are less expensive.

I must apologize. My apology. I made a mistake in my post. ( I was using 5in and my friend was using 6in). We both were T-Riging.

I think the main dif. could be the angler that presented the bait at the right place right time.

Sometimes the fish want the fast drop worm with a auger or ribbon tail,
and other times they want the slow fall of the tiki

I experiment with that pattern almost every time I go out, they usually want one or the other, and if not that I go to the tube or fluke

JB! You could be right. We only fished about three hrs late this afternoon. We will try it again. The Tike have always caught more fish for me. I didn't wacky any today. Will try that next time we go.
