Anyone ever use these for sandies? I pulled in a couple nice ones and some smaller ones with them. Bite started almost immediately. What other baits do you guys like? Slabs, spinnerbaits? I ran out of minnows the other day and started throwing these and was surprised at how well they work. Thanks! 3" pearl red eye

I'm having some great luck with both lipless and billed cranks in sexy shad color. I've also had good luck with rebel jumpin minnows when they're popping on top. Slabs are a no brainer, especially when the schools are deeper.

Thanks edwardphoto! New to hybrid fishing. Any advice is appreciated. Done sum research but always like to hear peoples' personal experiences. seems I always pick something up a little outside of the norm that works.

Great baits for nighttime dock fishing,,the flat lead heads allow me to skip that bait under the dock,when we have water...

I use two of them above a deep running crank bait that I troll. Works well for sandies and stripers.
Sandbass can be caught on just about anything. White, silver and chartreuse will catch them. I can't think of many crankbait or spinner type lures that wont catch them.
