Hula / spider grub

A twin-tail grub with a skirt of tentacles at the head — a soft-plastic jig in one piece, dragged on a football head for deep smallmouth and largemouth.

Soft plastics are the biggest family in bass fishing: 36 shapes, each designed for a rig, a depth and a mood.

• Shape = design purpose: fish, worm, craw, creature, tube, frog
• Finesse tier vs power tier: the same shape at 3.5 in and 7 in is two different techniques
• Tail type decides the action; body decides the fall
• Rig it the way it was designed to be rigged

1. What it is — A 4-5 in twin-tail body with a moulded tentacle skirt. It moves like a skirted jig without the skirt.
2. Designed for — Deep rock and ledges on a football head, Texas-rigged in sparse cover, Carolina-rigged on flats — a big bottom profile for both bass.
3. Trade-offs — Slow and snag-prone on an exposed head in wood.
