    Skinny Dippers

    Any of you guys have any luck with these? Thinking about trying them, but I don't want to waste my money.

    Re: Skinny Dippers (buckjunkie)

    Both ways produce depending on what your trying to do. I usually use a weighted swimbait hook and I will have a seperate rod rigged with a weightless fluke,swimbait or swimming fluke for fishing closer to the top.

    http://www.nastybaits.com makes a good dipper type swimbait that works good without a weighted hook as it takes less to get the tail kicking due to it being softer and you can work it like a weightless fluke.

    Bass Assasin makes a good swimbait also called the die dapper that has the same profile as a skinny dipper but much softer. You can get them from Academy.

    Re: Skinny Dippers (Skeet22)

    I've caught bass on different types of swimbaits while fishing for specs, but i never use them specifically for bass. Do y'all use them a lot for bass and if so what hook? I'm usually using a 3/16-1/4 oz jighead.

    Mustad power lock 1/8 oz 5/0 is my favorite for shallow grass.
