Nice review Joe. I liked the up close and personal look at the bait in different colors. Look forward to hearing more about your wiggle stick.
The BAIT! The bait called a wiggle stick. I forget sometimes who reads this stuff! LOL
Tried it. Does seem to have durability issues. Like another commenter, i was using the gamagatsu g finesse hybrid ewg style hook. Maybe a full on EWG will work better. Fishes similar to a senko. Last time out it seemed to do better than a senko in moderate cover. Plan on trying it around pads at the end of the month.
Great review but that bait weighs more than twice what you’re saying. It comes in at 5/8 oz.
Used the Yamatanuki for the first time this weekend. Worked great on LMB. Fished in and around lite to moderate cover cover (lilly pads, weed beds). Most hits were on the fall, similar to Senko. Durability is an issue. But, to be fair, I was using the same Gamakatsu Aaron Martens G-Finesse Heavy Cover Hook I use for t-rig Senkos. Maybe an EWG would not tear the bait as much when rigging. In anycase, I am adding the Yamatanuki to rmy regular arsenal. BIG fan of Yamamoto soft plastics.
Just got some, wondering what's your preferred way to work them for LM.
Hello Joe. That looks amazing. I’m gonna have to buy some and bake em. 😂 It’s funny when you see lure and you immediately match the perfect location to throw it. Great review.
Appropriate that this is a “beaver” style bait… please rename it the Yamalama Ding Dong.
What a strange design Joe, but doesn't matter if it works well. Another great review.
I can see myself catching some pond donkeys on these, rigged exactly like you had it! Seen these at my local walmart too, so that's a big plus.👍😎
I just got some and im going to fish them tomorrow
I can see “the duck call”. Also can see 💩. 😂. Like the one with the Amber👍 very interesting design for sure Joe. Did you have a issue with missing hook sets because of the thickness of it?
👍
Interesting to try that, but haven't seen it yet in québec Montréal canada.
It’s 5/8oz
I caught the largemouth with the same black spot on the fin
Tons of nice smallmouth on that. Looks like you could d shot, ned rig or just throw it on a jig head. Crazy looking bait but you couldn't keep them off. ¼ oz for a weightless bait is Crazy!
Great video!
Cool I will try them out
Great review and tips on how to use and they seem to be working great for you. Nice job Joe!
Interesting fin mark on that bass!
Tanuki means, "raccooon dog," in Japanese. Yama means, "mountain." Most interesting name for fishing equipment. lol
Definitely gonna get me some of these!
