I fish them C-Rig, TX- Rig, Dead Stick, and I also fish the baby ones on a Shaky Head. Very good bait and I agree that you can't fish them wrong!

SHHHHHH!!!!! LOL!! Same thing here.

Those things rock. especially when you use them as a trailer on your rooster tail.

The best way to fish a grandebass anything is to dangle it about 6" above the water. Open your livewell and just let the suckers jump in.

Best bait everrrrrr

I like to t-rig, weightless, and crig em.

Looks like we better get ready for an infomercial everytime our new member posts!!!!!

+1 on shaky right now at fork.....I use the big diamondback on a 1/16 owner shaky hook and 8lb floro on my spinnin rod. Been killin em...put it where the bass are and let it set. "Heres to you mr. lake fork rattlesnake shaker"

Have not heard anyone talk about how bad they tear up. I paid $4.50 for a four pack at academy and they were good for one fish each. After that every time I would cast them hard they rip in half and one end flies into the lake. I caught lots of fish on the LFT zig zag before the rattlesnake got popular

What were you using, a Tuna hook? I have reused them many times even after catching a fish. Never has one torn during a cast either.

ya where i fish on any lake i try to find some type of vegitation and i always use a 4.5' rattlesnake in watermelon red flake color and i tailweight it with half a nailweight and i flip it into open pockets and just lift it and drop it...this is a great bait

I guess it is kind of a trade off. The reason for the great action is because it is such a soft plastic. But look at what ya pay for other stuff like rage tails and yellow magic's. We pay that much becausr they work

You might give the O-ring method a try. Works for me. The tool that goes with the rings is great. Makes rigging a breeze and they don't tear. Get 'em at BPS.

Try dropshotting with a baby rattlesnake but you didn't hear it from me.

Use a swimbait flutter hook.

As Zeeter mentioned they are great to C-rig. Try them Wacky rigged also. My son likes to dead stick them like a Senko. I am a little to ADHD to fish that slow. I use a 1/16 oz. Tungsten weight with them with lots of success. Trophy Hunter has been my best color. Good luck with them and remember as Lance Vick mentioned, Skin the RS. He has a post on it. You will get more miles out of your RS.
