Bro, when you need something bulky to trigger big bass, The Thing delivers. This creature bait has presence.
Multiple appendages create water displacement and movement. Bass feel it coming through heavy cover before they see it - and when they do see it? Game on.
Where It's Money:
My Setup:
Texas Rig with 1/2-1oz tungsten. 50-65lb braid. 7'3"-7'6" heavy rod. You're fishing for big bites in heavy cover - you need the gear to get them out.
Real Talk:
This isn't a numbers bait. You're targeting bigger fish in thick cover where smaller baits get ignored. When you get bit, it's usually a good one.
Color Selection:
Dark colors (Black/Blue, Junebug) for stained water or low light. Green Pumpkin for clearer conditions. Match what crawfish look like in your lake.
Target Species: Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass
Custom American-made soft plastic hand-poured in Texas by WM Bayou. Every lure is crafted with premium materials and proven fish-catching action.
Target Species: Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Spotted Bass
Recommended Techniques: Twist Lock, Dropshot, Carolina Rig, Free Rig, Texas Rig, Neko Rig, Nose Hook

Great Product, Great Service
When considering small, boutique bait makers these guys are at the top of my list.

Amazing action!
The Thing has unbelievable action. I threw the white one in semi-stained water to test it and I could see its wiggling, erratic motion with every rod twitch. This thing (no pun intended) draws attention. A couple of bass chased it with only one committing to a slight bite. My bad for not waiting for the bass to inhale it. When I say it draws attention, it really does. I had large bluegills swipe at it. They obviously couldn’t eat it but they sure wanted it. Come spring, these baits are gonna land some lunkers.
