Artificial Octopus Swimbait, Skirt Tail Lure

This lure is awesome! Haven't had a chance to use it and probably wont get to use it in saltwater like it was intended for. I thought it would be fun to try as a big bass lure so my kids got it for me for Christmas. Its soft and the hook seams stout. I'd definitely use it rock fishing on a beach or out on a pier.

Bait worked great! Too bad I lost it to broken leader early in the day. Wish I had ordered more.

They were a lot bigger than what I expected. They have real good weight to them and they look almost lifelike in the water. I like the fact that at the "beak" of the octopus, you can attach another hook with a snap leader and add 1/2 of a sardine to entice the fish even more. I don't like the fact that I haven't been able to catch any fish, but I've only used them once and got sea sick. Will update review when I catch something.

These are well made lures. Love the additional hook loop on the inside of the legs... I added 2 keeper hooks for short biters!!

Great life like soft bait! Here’s my critiques, the hook provided is very very under sized, barely sticks out from the profile of the lure. The under size hook is even more “under sized” in the larger version of this lure. I ended up clipping off the provided hook and using a halibut wire mooching rig (9/0-10/0 hooks) and attaching it to the provided bottom ring .....now we’re talking! The fish this large lure would attract have large mouths so this is the set power we’re looking for! My other critique is the cosmetic eyes come off very easily. I’m using paint on the eyes, the stiff button eyes won’t stick with any glue due to the soft rubbery nature of the body. Other than that, love the look of this soft bait. I’m using it for ling cod and halibut, our season opens in a couple weeks so we will see how the fish like it. I give it three stars due to the amount of alterations I had to apply to the lure.

At fist I thourt that it was a wast of time on till I try it .It work like a charm I bought more.

Don’t swim good in a lot of current don’t recommend from fishing from shore unless in very calm water

As described. Very nice soft baits. Let them sit in some gulp alive juice and GO FISH!
