I was wanting to know which you prefer.I have always used Grande Bass baby rattlesnakes for Carolina rigging but they are getting hard to find and about half I find now are bent up in middle or closer to tail.

Thanks,

4.75" rattle snake is probably my go to bait period for a Texas or c-rig

X2.....My go to bait not only for confidence but as well as tough conditions is a 4.75" Rattlesnake in TH color.

Keep doing what brought ya... There are some new products you need to ck out for Crigging like the new air tail go to the website and look it over ... Not that I'm a homey or anything, LOL but Jerry makes some great baits

I like the snake-O better than the rattlesnake. We always have one of those tied on in some fashion.

Can't beat the original

I use Hag's Tornado, because it is much easier to get, up here, anyway. Hope this helps.

Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.

They are pretty much the same bait to me. Check out the Lake Fork Tackle ring fry as well- I like that both sides are symmetrical because if one end gets torn up I can just rig it backwards.

yall boys got it all wrong! all about them ring fries. babies on dropshots and finesse texas rigs and the regular ones on crigs and texas rigs.

shoot they both work

I prefer the Snake-O also.

2111-15: Try putting the bent ones in boiling water for a minute or two and then lay them out straight. They'll be OK when they cool.

C'mon Man...... Have you ever seen a completely straight "real" worm? A little bend here or there won't hurt a thing. Real worms curl up all the time

+1 Try the regular one weightless also!

The new Airtail Rattler is a great bait on the C-Rig no doubt. But since this post is speaking of the Rattlesnake vs. the Tornado....just run with what got you here. Don't let me sway you by mentioning that GrandeBass has more total baits per package per size in comparison. Some sizes we offer almost 2:1 over the competition. That's putting money back in your pocket and makes the wife happy. Now get out there and catch some fish in this awesome weather we are having. Tight lines

Oh....did I mention that the new Airtails will start showing up in Academy next week? ;-)
