Hi All

I saw Rob Fisher use a squirrel Tail Worm the other day on ESA Bass. It looks like the business. Where Can I find some?, How do you fish it properly?

I fish them on a Picasso Shaky Head jig and they are dynamite! Not sure where they are available outside JHB but the Ninja (Murchison’s) and The Complete Angler stock them! I also fish them on drop shot and even CBC rigged.

Hi Rob

Thank You for the advice they looked like dynamite on the show especially for smallies. Am I mistaken in assuming that the tail end floats? If been looking for a good shakky head worm for a long time with the requiremet that the tail floats to give it a bit more action. As a rule I know that hand poured worms do this but the thinner profile and the boyant tail of the squirrel tail will out fish any hand poured.

I also think that these worms on a dynamic jig head( jig head connected to a hook by a movable clip) will kill. Cant't wait to try it out.

Nev thanks fot the advice I'll swing by the angling pro shop. Charles and the boys are awesome!

Monster, i'm curious to know how you got 997 posts? if you divide 997 by 3 you get 332.3... so you must have made a few single posts somewhere. lol... :lol:1:lol:1

Hi Monster... I got Squirrel Tails a little while back and they have accounted for a lot of fish... I tried them at Kwaggas last month and while Kwaggas isn’t the best destination for a shaky head I found a nice sandy patch in the trees and let the rig fly and nailed two very nice smallies that helped me win the little compo... Being in KZN I have fished them at Midmar (dynamite), Albert’s and Inanda with great success.

And yes the little bit on the end does flat which gives the bait some awesome movement!
