Look out lunkers, here come the 5.5"Grande tubes from Arkansas' Mizmo Bait Company. This big dog is perfect for Flippin'
or Pitchin' into the heaviest bass holding cover you can find.
They are also excellent for fishing along the edges of Lilly pads and
grass
lines. The gentle, yet sporadic falling action of the Grande is irresistible.
For
years, the tube jig has been a very effective bait for catching large
numbers of quality fish. However, there are differences in quality
and design that can make one tube superior to the competition. The
soft,
yet durable plastic construction of Mizmo's 5.5" Grande
tubes makes them ideal for serious anglers. Not having to replace your
bait after every fish is a blessing in disguise. It allows you to keep fishing
while users of other tube baits are fumbling around through their storage
compartments looking for another lure.
Bass seem to really clamp down on this bait and hold on very tight. This
is probably the direct result of two different qualities that the Grande's
possess. One of these qualities is the soft feel of these tubes. The
second is the "Edge," which is an attractant that
is an important part of the equation. Together they give the fish the
sense
that what
they are biting is actually a real piece of food. What this equates
to is a longer time period for the angler to set the hook. Anytime
you can
get fish to hold on a little bit longer, your odds of catching that
fish greatly increase.
Mizmo
has produced the 5.5" Grande's in a variety of color
schemes that enable anglers to match their bait with the water clarity,
conditions
and local forage. Whether you are trying to mimic a Gizzard Shad while
fishing a Carolina Rig or imitating a Crawdad while flipping the tube Texas rigged, color variations can be the subtle difference that drives
the fish nuts.
Regardless
of how you rig the 5.5" Grande tubes, they can be very effective
in producing big bass. The next time you are on the water in search
of a tournament winning catch or just your next photo opportunity,
tie on
a 5.5”Grande Tube and hold on tight to your rod. www.Mizmo.com
