This UNKNOWN Color Is DYNAMITE! But Can You Find It?

Been doing this for a long time on baby bass Senkos and swimbaits

👍

We can make you any color

Huh , good one Matt I tell you what the main thing this made me think about was where the fish is targeting it’s strike seems like the tail in these instances good one thanks I’m gonna try it.

Been using a baby bass super fluke with the tail dipped in black die for a few years , think I saw Andrew Upshaw do it on a video

I learned that technique from Tim Little at Tactical Bassin a year ago and have done well neko rigging baby bass Yamamoto senkos with a 1/32 oz nail weight. 😉 I agree entirely with you It’s a great technique, especially in Florida!

Thanks Matt!! Great new info and tip. You are very appreciated!

Missile Baits have some with black tails. I regularly use MEK, "Mend-It", and I often use it to modify, alter, or redesign soft plastics, not just for repairs.

It's very easy to cut the tip sections off a black stick bait and whatever other color stick bait you want to add it to. I also shorten or lengthen swimbaits, replace their tails for bigger or smaller, or alter their pitch for more or less action. You can even add the skirt section from a tube, to practically any PVC bait. The main consideration when doing that, is to make sure you are making perfect 90 degree, perpendicular, even cuts. There are always some methods that have yet to be discovered by the average angler.

Missile baits actually has a color called baby bass tail now

Been doing this for a long time, even on flukes!! It works for sure.

That's not a color combination I've ever tried before. Seems almost like a no brainer that it would be good. I'll have to break out the old Do-It molds and make a few batches and see what happens!

Personally, I wouldn't use an actual Sharpie…because of the chemical smell. Interesting. Spike-It, all day long! 😁

Who wouldve guessed sharpie has better scent than Berkley, garlic, clothing pockets…….

That works good with the zoom super flukes in baby bass color around the post spawn fry guarders. I dot the tail tips and dot on a few dots for the lateral line with the sharpie

Thanks Matt…probably one you thought maybe I'll keep this to myself?

Thanks Matt. I have them on order, 4" and 5" Looking forward to trying them.

I’ve never fished the baby bass color on any lure but this year I’ve been fishing a lake that’s pretty clear and has a small bass population so I thought I’d give it a try with Flukes and the new Yammy Tanuki, I’m glad I did! I’ve caught some good fish using it. It’s been my best color on that lake(I’m usually a black & blue and junebug guy). I have to try the black tip trick to see if it makes it even better.

Sounds interesting! Gonna give er a try!

Have you tried putting the Hover Rig in a senko type worm? I wonder if you would catch fish with it in the middle, like a hybrid wacky jig thing? Senko type worms look like they would catch fish in the saltwater for sure but I haven't played with it yet. They should be good on a jig head unless the tail biters ruin them. That's a big problem around the Chesapeake with croakers and spots ruining soft plastics and Gulp especially. When it cools down they're supposed to go away and I can try a senko for stripers and redfish.

We do that here in NC aswell! Very effective in clear conditions this time of year!!
