Glenn, I guess I jumped the gun with the texas rig jig as far as availability. They quickly sold out of the baits that they had and are getting some more in very soon. I know that I'm new here and it's hard to believe someone you know nothing about. I just can't help but talk about these baits because I'm very excited about them.
The texas rig jig is much different from a hula tail grub. It is bulkier and designed more for flipping/pitching into heavy cover (you can also place it on a football head jig). When it hits bottom the craw goes up in a defensive position and the claws go back and then forward again. It won't replace a jig but it's less prone to snagging like a jig. The smaller bait called the "Crawdourve" also goes up into a defensive position and is deadly on a drop shot....the smallies love them too! Some guys are replacing their roboworms with the "finicky tickler" finesse worms. The worm is catching a ton of fish when fished on a drop shot or a shakey head.
You just have to see the action on these baits. If you fish heavily pressured waters, like in NJ, having something like these baits helps to present something different because of the subtle action of all the baits available (worms, creatures,lizards,etc.)
I'm not asking anyone to replace their baits(although I know some guys that have). Just giving a link so you guys can check out something new.
Ken, most of the tournaments have been club tournaments, buddy tounaments, ABA, and FOM tournaments. The links would not help any.
Not Spam Dan. I just found this site because I was thinking about buying a TV-18. Just trying to let people know about something I feel will help them catch fish.
