What is your favorite soft plastic and,why

DeadManwalking92 · 05-30-07, 06:58 PM

I would have to say the Gulp nightcrawler . Because when you use the right color it looks very realistic and it drives the bass crazy

Patrick Krueger, Jr. · 05-30-07, 07:47 PM

Senkos of all sorts. Gulp's in watermelon/red flake is the best IMO.

DeadManwalking92 · 05-30-07, 08:18 PM

I would have to say that the natural color is my favorite.

catch_release · 05-30-07, 08:28 PM

Gulp nightcrawlers, green pmkn and pmkn seed have been working for me 4" & 7", bass with every cast.

DeadManwalking92 · 05-30-07, 08:56 PM

I have been catching alot of bass on the Zoom Horny toad.

either buzzing it in open water or just inching it along on top of matted weeds

noboatyet · 05-30-07, 09:08 PM

Shartruce ZOOM is my fav of all because I've caught bass and trout. I had my doubts about the trout but they knocked the crap out of it. No weight throw it over the flat rocks and drag it towards ya. They will snap it right up.

bassbooger · 05-31-07, 08:09 AM

My favorite is the Zoom Trick Worm in white or black, followed by senkos, colors depending on what the water color is and time of day .

I have never really had a lot of faith in plastics, I know some of you are gawking and can't believe what I just said, but I have decided to give plastics more of a chance this year since I now have a complete arsenal after hitting the clearance sales at Wally World.

I have been having great success with the NetBait finesse worm, in junebug. A friend gave me one and all of a sudden I started catching bass. Went out an bought 2 packs of them after that, and now, it is my fav.

Also have started to use a lizard, and it has been working good too.

Yum dinger fork tailed - green pumpkin - because i catches fishes wid it!

mont_lunker_hunter · 05-31-07, 08:44 AM

Zoom ol' moster or Lucky Strike Baby Huey

I have been a big fan of plastics for about 10 years now. I have used just about every brand you can find in stores. Once I found Gary Yamamoto's, I did not even consider another brand. The Senko's will consistantly produce. If the fish arent biting on Senko's.....they arent biting. Colors will vary based on the clarity of the water you are fishing. For years I have been hesitant to let my seceret out, but the jig is up and everyone knows about them now. Buy a pack of 5 inch watermelons and you will see what I am talking about.

traphuntfish · 05-31-07, 09:26 PM

culprit purple and black 7 1/5 inch nightcrawler by far

RyDogg · 05-31-07, 10:00 PM

powerbait 6'' blue flake worm. caught a lot of nice bass on this one, including the pic on the left.

hackattack · 05-31-07, 10:09 PM

strike king zero, killer bait and durable as flyrod's ego (jokin)!

Rebbasser · 06-01-07, 12:35 AM

I'd have to say a Senko type bait-Watermelon and Baby Bass/Pearl laminate Yum Dingers and Baby Bass/Pearl, Watermelon Chartreuse, and Green Pumpkin/Chartreuse swirl Tiki Sticks.

I also like a Sweet Beaver type bait on a C-rig.

DblDgt615 · 06-01-07, 12:39 AM

watermelon red flake zoom trick worm

BassAddict · 06-01-07, 07:07 AM
