if its weedless wheres the hook? so if the bass bite does the hook come out or something?

[southernswimbait]

the southeast! more water, more diversity in lakes, and still have big fish, just not the high teener and better opportunities, unless you really hit it right

Hey Matt,all in all were would you say your best fishing has been ,here in cali/west coast or were you are now on the east side? thanks Brian

Bdodd2007 not at all five bucks is as cheap as quality swim baits come

[osstwan13]

crank those little bass in hard enough. jesus. im suprised those baby bass still have lips. haha

[Fshrmn13]

What retrieve would you reccomend for this bait? it seems like in the grass ripping it would work, but what is your fave?

ps. try the roboworm ez shad its awsome!!

[BassBabyTV]

Good fishing man!

[bearman1210]

Which color do you like the best??

[bdodd2007]

I like these baits... just think they are priced alittle high for what they are

[HughMungus2k9]

I believe the bigger the bait bigger the fish.. In that note.. I use bass magic 4 or 5 1/2 inch swimbaits and i swear by them... the best thing ive ever used by far... However im looking forward to trying these out soon.. From West Palm, good fishing yall...

[HughMungus2k9]

i think it needs to be a lil big bigger to entice bigger bass.. Myself, I like bass magic 4inch or 5 1/2 inch in silver... they work everywhere... I'm looking forward to trying these out tho.. from West Palm... good fishing yall.

[optician01]

[optician01]

i live in okeechobee, where can i buy this bait? are yall mostly fishin over by the monkey box area? have younoticed any improvements in the fishing over my way, [like kings bar, eagle bay, or up the kiss. river?] thanks for psting, will you put up more?

[RobVT3]

Not trying to hate, it obviously catches fish, but does it catch any larger fish?  Weren't those fish small by Okeechobee standards?

[southernswimbait]

Yeah it catches larger fish. Check my blog, photo gallery, etc. Heck I weighed 23 pounds on Day 1 of the American Series. 4 of the 5 were on the grass minnow. My traveling coangler partner had 16 pounds on it. It catches better fish, just didn't get any good ones on film. Yeah, those weren't Okeechobee's finest. MP
