Go to bait

[RICHYD4U]

I Guess I'm The Only One Who Throws A Senko As My Go-to Bait. Favorite Colors Are: Red Shad, Green Watermelon Seed And Pumpkin. You Can't Go Wrong With A Senko! Wacky Style, Weedless Style, Whatever! Always Produces!

Yes!!! Good one RichD. I forgot abou the senko's. They do seem to work when nothing else will.

Going to have to try this rootbeer bandit. I have heard alot of things on it. Believe ill make a trip tommorow.Thanks guys for all the hits. Just wondering what different fisherman used.

Rootbeer bandits dont work. Especially for smallies in the river. Better try something else.

WHATT???????????!!!!!!!!!!! I've caught fish (good fish too) on rootbeer bandits - 200's and 300's in every lake I have fished in Kentucky. I have a picture in my profile of a 6 pounder caught late last fall on a rootbeer bandit on Ky lake. They are deadly on Nolin and Barren too. Also caught quite a few smaller bass paddling my way to the dam up the Dix river en route to catch some trout (they don't work for trout though).

I don't however like the hooks that come on bandits. I always change them right out of the box with some gam's. If you haven't tried them, they are definitely worth a shot. A very quality, affordable crankbait. I have an entire box devoted to them.

Not too good at picking up the sarcasm...

Actually they are my go to bait for warm water smallies.

Yeah, I wrote that and thought maybe you were being sarcastic afterwards - tone is hard to pick up on in plain text.

Didn't intend to sound rude - I get fired up over my bandits. I would have taken less offense had you insulted my wife. Lol.

I am a believer in the Rootbeer bandits and the Rootbeer/chartruese Bandits in the 200 and 300 series I have caught fish (GOOD FISH) in every body of water ive been on with these baits. Caught SM and spots on the Cumberland river below Barkley and also in the Tennesee River as well. Ive almost always got a Bandit tied on whenever im on the water
