Sweet Beavers?


Slyster

Recommended Posts

I read a post here recently... about how well "sweet beavers" are performing (I believe it's a plastic) so I asked about it today at Gander (not sure how knowledgeable they are...) and the salesman said he has never heard of it.

So..... what are they and where do I nab some?

They are another creature/craw type of bait - work well for me. I ordered mine online but I did see them at Capras. You can check them out at reactioninnovations dot com. They are the makers.

I googled sweet beaver and found a store that had some in stock and bought a few bags. they work nicely t-rigged. they have a nice little grove down the middle of them that you can lay your hook on to make it weedless.

Thanks! I need to pick me up some of those. They look pretty slick. If I use tubes and worms/senkos primarily.. anyone with experience know if they are REALLY worth getting?

As I mentioned in an earlier post I have been having outstanding success with the 3.5 inch smallie beaver. A subtle bait with little action , but, the bass seem to love em.The 3.5 inch also works great on a skirted jig.

Sly- like any plastic lure, the rigging is only held back by your imagination! I would say the most popular way would be to rig it as a texas rig. A sliding worm weight and a offset worm hook. It would work great on a carolina/stupid rig too.

I fish em quite a bit. I Texas rig them most of the time, or they work great as a jig trailer. I will also rig it weightless with a 3/0 offset hook. It falls very slow with a great action. I also rig them on a jig head. I can't remember what they are called, but I think its called a touchdown jig or something. It has a plastic keeper peg on it. Hope this helps.

I am like everyone else....kinda. I use these baits alot around docks, where i am throwing them weight less, or upside down cool.gif

They work great when you are fishing reels where you can swim the bait threw the reeds. I have had great luck with them, the probem is they get soft, and you can go through alot of them!!

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
