Live target baits

Post by catastrophy »

Has anyone used these? I was just browsing at academy and found their hybrid shrimp on sale for $7, normally 13. There were only 2 left so i grabbed one. Any input on them?

Yep. The shrimp work in the right conditions. Use it like a standard lure and jerk and pause like a shrimp "tailing" through the water.

At half price, they're worth a try at least. They do look good, but for imitation shrimp lures, there are less expensive options. DOA & Voodoo come to mind. These look more realistic, but remember, depending on the water that you fish, the fish aren't really seeing detail, so that extra realism may not be worth paying for.
