Thread: Curly tail grubs

Catch a lot on curly tails here, really like Kalin and Southern Pros..colors vary by the day, sunlight etc.
Also catch many on CB sliders in the fall.

Yeah, I'm not complaining.

Fle-FLY perfect pearl color . Southern pro in the double trouble color and Mr. twister in the teeny tail 2 inch neon oil .Alond with these 1 inch sliders(not a curly tail ) as well as 2 inch make up 90 % of what I use .

My favorite lure for bass is a 1/4oz jig with a chartreuse curly tail on it. I guess its about 2". Have tried 1" one on a really small lead head jig for crappie and never got the first one so far. Seem's that every other color works but they don't seem to care for chartreuse, can't figure that out! Something else, doesn't seem to matter what color the jig head is or even it it's just plain lead. But for myself I really thin the colored heads look better, stupid tasteless fish!

I like the Southern Pro 1 1/2 inch tail. 1/16 once head with a #6 hook.

I do well on the 2in Triple Ripple Tail, the Cabelas knock off in Black with Chartreuse tail has been a good bait for me.

Don't do well with curly tail grubs so I cut off the tail and add a spike tail:



White has done well in murky water thus far. For a good deal on curl tail grubs, Overstock.com ($.34/10 nice color; $2.89/36; Cabelas - Mr Twister ($5/50). I like Yum Ribbontail grub curl tail design over any other (Yum website $2.59/15).
But one use for curl tail grubs is on a Beetle Spin along with a Crappie Magnet split tail.


Haven't had much luck with Slider grubs (boot tail) either. The Cultiva shown is pretty much one except more expensive.
