Redneck Rubber Company

Went to the tackle show today and met with the members of the new Redneck Rubber Co.....talked with Steve Holsen and he showed me their new baits that have been on the market for 3 whole days....if you liked the wooly beavertail (that isnt being made) they have a very similar bait known as the Beaver Bottom Bait in the same colors that we all liked. They are located in Owasso and will be selling online to begin with but are looking for places to expand to....picked up several bags and will be trying them the next trip and will post the results. Good fishing and remember the Eufaula tourney is the 4th.

Met them boys too. Baits looked great! They look and feel better than the Yum brand and should displace water for better vibration.

I agree Reaper...and i like the changes that have been made to them

I'm glad they entered the market the beavertail was one of the best spring baits I have used . No clue why yum abandoned the line up , the Redneck guys say they will have 17 colors pretty soon . they seemed like good guys and easy to get ahold of as they are in Owasso .

Do they have a website? Google doesn't come up with a hit.

I picked up some (I say some, my wife says a lot!) Saturday myself, tried them out yesterday with success! They really displace some water as I could feel the vibration of the jigs in my rod fishing 7-9 foot deep moving very slow. I think they've got a great jig and seem like great guys. Thumbs up for Redneck Rubber.
PS...Picked up a couple more Huckabee pulling rods to add to my collection as well. The new blanks seem to be lighter and a touch more sensitive to me. And you won't step on them in boat either, they are brightly colored!

Pic of one???

Pics. Yum in blue, redneck rubber in black/pink

Hmmm, look pretty close. should work fine

Not only plastic baits but wide gap hooks too. Great colored head in 1/16, 1/8, and 1/4. All with bait keepers. Time to restock!

They do look pretty good. A lot of guys (me included, sometimes) bite the nose off to better fit a particular jig. Looks like they did them that way too.

thats what i told them....now i wont have to bite that piece off....lol

Andy

I picked up some on Saturday. Like em. Crappie like em!

I went to the web page posted above ,but ity don't show much.It don't have info on ordering.????

Yeah varmit...like I say they are in the process of getting it all together...hopefully they will get it going soon....they have been selling them for 5 days now

Andy

I hope they do well. I went to school with Steve Holson and he is a really great guy.

Those look great. I sent them an email with a rare color suggestion (that works!) that I can't seem to find in a larger sized bait like that. Even if they don't make that color, I hope they are successful.

Curiosity is killing me , what color combo did you suggest ? I would like to see one in the old red shad color of the original yum lineup

Yellow body with a chartreuse tail to fish on a red jig head. Dad used to have some OLD fat tubes that were red/yellow/chart that we used to load the boat with in the springtime. We recently ran out of them and haven't been able to find anything since that matched or even came close. I've been tying up some jigs in that combination but they are more of a pain to change out and I sure hate loosing them.

Got my jog heads & blk /pink beaver bottom baits in today real fast del , looks GREAT !

I like the new Beaver Bottoms. 17 colors and don't need to pinch the head off. Plus, great wide-gap hooks in super colors.

I really like the not only the baits but I met Steve Holsen and his dad Junior. They are really great people. There product and customer service are both great. They truly are interested in what people think of their product and what else they can do to make it better. Use that bait on a Huckabee Dipping rod and you can feel it when you hit baitfish.....great combo

I met Steve and his Dad in Arkansas last week where we were all waiting for the bite to pick up. I loved those Beaver Bottoms and filled one pocket with those and the other pocket with my new favorite jigs with a big clean eyeball and a wide bodied hook. Took them out the next morning and we were about the only ones I saw catching fish. Day before I used the same colors ( red and chartreuse) and same size jig head and lost more fish than I landed. With the larger hook we lost very few and man did those big males wallop those new jigs! As others have stated the owner, Steve is an unusually nice and accommodating person, who actually got out of bed to sell us some baits while we ate his most excellent chili. I believe Beaver Bottom chili would sell as fast as the jigs! Gonna try to post a picture or two of what we caught on a really slow day.

Not too proud of the pictures but those were some nice males running up to 1.75 lbs. and as you can see we did manage a few nice trash fish on the B B s! I wanted to cut their throats and throw em back in as a warning but Dennis has a soft spot for green buffalo so we gave them an oil massage instead.

Crappie Ciller those are some big males, you dont always catch them that big. EB

you must have been knee deep in fish CC to have that many!! I thought i put you in waist deep fish this winter and you only came back with 1! I can not imagine what that graph pic look like this trip! Or Redneck rubber is that good!!!

Got a new shallow vertical jigging method going- I call it Shakey Shakey Boom! When those beefy Beaver Bootys shake their tail feathers good things happen TC. Since you've seen me fish I might as well admit the obvious- it's the Redneck product.

Heard the bite was full on at Millwood last week so I made the drive and got there a day late. Talked to several guys who all had 0-3 for the day which made me feel better about my time there. I fished alone ( my buddy in another boat with Big Ed) Monday 3-7pm plus Tuesday 7-noon I caught 21 biguns (well big for me). The funny thing about this lake is that we never catch any dinks ; one in 3 years of spring fishing in 1-9 fow. I fished exclusively with 2" Beaver Bottoms on 1/4 oz. jigs, mostly standing timber. Size ran from 12-15" and up to 2 pounds. Trying to take more pictures on the water but I can't see my screen in sunlight and ended up taking video of most of the shots I really wanted- so here's what's left.

Actually was this week, May 4-5 and yeah that was no typo- Dennis was cheatin on me with a guy named Big Ed. Fishing alone gave me more opportunity to practice my stay put trolling motor skills. Mark, you will be proud to hear that I haven't wet an anchor in over a month!

HEY! MARK? Give a guy a little credit. :biggrin

Reaper, I figure you are awed that I have even kept my old TM running! Been using it so much that I carry a spare battery cause it runs down fighting the wind. That tracker blows around like a bobber with no split shot!i
