For those who dont know these are zara spook look alikes, but they are semi soft plastic bait. the upside to these is that these use a basic plastic worm hook that is meant to be rigged weedless to get the classic walk the dog action of a zara spook over weed beds where the classics just get snagged. They're also weighted to theyre easily casted. has anybody used them? anybody have any luck with them?

i was fishing a local pond and after the zara spook i was slamming large mouths on got caught in jagger bush that night i went home and ordered these from cabelas. ive caught a few on them and if they prove they can catch fish like the spooks then ill buy packs and packs more haha

yeah but if i can pull a fish from on top of a weed bed that a spook wouldnt be able to fish then i consider it a success, nothing will ever be as good as the original. but undoubtedly this is a good step for the walk the dog type lures

ill be trying these out again a little later tonight, ill post the product

ill make a few of those before i go fishing this afternoon

Stuff a piece of a cut up sponge in a tube bait and its unsinkable. You can rig it any way you want and its costs next to nothing...

 
I knew I'd come up with a use for those boxes of ear plugs at work! Thanks Stone.

Yes. It greatly depends on the type of sponge you use. I've played around with it and different sponges have very different qualities. I don't know enough about plastic, etc. to know what the different materials are called, but the buoyant stuff that those foam chairs and mattresses are made of will not sink… The really soft, light sponge that you wash your car with will float for a long, long time before it sinks. After it sinks, you can wring it out and it will float again. I was toying with the idea of spraying it with crawfish scent inside, too. I’m not sure how valuable that would be for a topwater bait, but, rigged to fish under the water, it might be pretty sweet.
