    Experimenting with various lures is the main reason I fish as well as learning the waters I usually fish.
    I still have to try the no-tail body (above left) with the b.spin. The thin, straight tail on the right did the trick!

    A similar one (below) started the day catching 8 perch and a sunfish in 3'. It is a hybrid of two grub bodies joined together using heat.

    In the afternoon, I switched to the pearl color, hand-poured, curl tail minus the tail:

    Note: I rigged the grub from the back where the tail was before was after it was cut it off. It caught approx. 15 fish. Total caught was 35. It cast far in shallow water rigged on a light jig and I could work it very slowly using a twitch/wind/pause - retrieve, never a steady retrieve unlike the b.spin.
    Use a grub body minus the tail Try it. You'll be shocked how many fish it catches!
