Members Bassmandan Posted February 6, 2008 Members Posted February 6, 2008 Went to buy some wiggle warts but had a quick question that I thought you guys could answer. I've heard a lot about brown, green, and red craw colors. I noticed they're made in crayfish and crawdad patterns. Are people reffering to the crayfish colors or the more solid crawdad patterns? I appreciate any help.

Bill Babler Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Old style favorites are 037-038-045-059-062-063-086 New style 362-363-383-386. Go to the Storm Baits sight and it will give you full color on all of the above. As far as the Rock Goes, any and all of these colores work extremely well and most of us have about a 1/2 dozen of each. I would guess Bill Beck easly has over 200 of these crustation look-a-likes in his boxes. You can kind of match the hatch so as to speak with these colors, by determining the craws natural color that the fish are consuming at the appropriate time of year. 362 and 363 have been really hot this last fall. Good Luck, Hopes this helps http://whiteriveroutfitters.com http://whiteriverlodgebb.com
techo Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Sometimes I think it is whatever lure you had the most success with. My partner likes the crawdad colors and I like the crayfish colors. If he starts catching them and I don't though.....I like his color better. I have way more crayfish colored Wiggle Warts and Mag Warts. Tim Carpenter
Ealy Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 Hey guys check out the Storm website. They've got a new bait, the "Wiggle Wart Madflash". There are 4 or 5 colors that look hard to beat around here. Haven't seen any for sale yet, but you can bet I'll be looking for them. Don't discount the Cordell Wiggle "O" either. I've caught plenty of bass on their knockoff of the wiggle wart.
Members Bassmandan Posted February 7, 2008 Author Members Posted February 7, 2008 BB, Thanks for the info it was very helpful. I'm stocking up for my trip down in March. Figure I should have the basics in addition to my arsenal that I currently have. I hope the "new" wiggle wart is still the same after rapala bought out storm.

Trav Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 I agree!! The wigle O by cordell is just as worthy of the hype. "May success follow your every cast." - Trav P. Johnson
Chief Grey Bear Posted February 10, 2008 Posted February 10, 2008 I hope the "new" wiggle wart is still the same after rapala bought out storm. I thought Rebel bought them?

Members Bassmandan Posted February 10, 2008 Author Members Posted February 10, 2008 I thought it was Rapala but you could be right. I know that Normark corp, the parent company of rapala, has aquired a number of lure manufacturers in the past few years. They bought Terminator, Luhr Jensen and I thought Storm but I could be wrong.

97procraft Posted February 11, 2008 Posted February 11, 2008 Does anyone know if Storm still makes/sells the Mid-Wart. They are still on the Storm web site, but I can not find them for sale anywhere on the net.
