PaleRed (5/13/2008)I don't think I could work a bait with confidence that had the tail bit off. I put them away this past weekend and caught some good fish on other baits. I don't know if they are as big an advantage in the summer as they are during the cold months. Not saying they don't work, just that if I can catch the same amount of fish on something less expensive, I will. Definately will keep them in the bag incase the bite isn't happening though.
Do you catch just as many fish with the tails nipped off?

Yep, makes it work more like a dart or slug or something. I'll eventually change it out, but I don't let a tail getting bit off stop me from fishing with it immediately. Sometimes, on the shrimp I will...but a jerk shad, I'll fish until it's falling off the hook or jig head pretty much.
