First cast drop shooting a Cajun melon centipede yielded a 4# LM for me on LOZ.  Have not tried the shark tails yet…

If you got pics, will put it up on the website… Thanks buddy appreciate it

          The shark tails in cajun melon have been working for me on the upper big the last month or so.  In fact I need to hit Denny Dennis to see if they have more cuz im down to my last 4 or 5.  I just rig it on a 16th oz jig with a #2 hook, so its basically a "nerd" rig, but it works for schmucks like me.  It works at least as well as the chompers DS worm I normally use.  The smallmouth my son caught in my last post was caught on it, although the worm isn't in the pic.  It is a bit too soft for my liking to fish on a shakey head, as I generally prefer a more durable worm when tossing into brush piles and such, but on the crappie jig it is dynamite. 

Ill also be at table rock in about a month and will certainly give it a try on a drop shot.

@Mitch f Is this a new endeavor/announcement?  I mean, you've obviously been working on it for awhile to get it where it is....  I just didn't know.  That's really cool!  Congratulations!!  Much success to you! 👍👍

Yea I had to wait a little before starting a new endeavor 😎 

but yea we are located in Fenton and the bait factory is one minute away from my main business office. Thanks for the support. We have 3 new baits coming soon.

I purposely made all my lures on the softer side. The fish tend to hold on longer and have better action. But I agree they are soft like a Senko or a Bandito bug. It’s always a catch 22 of course. 🙂

Plan on dragging a few of those plastics around on an upcoming trip. Too bad I don't have a pink worm.
