The Yamamoto Hula Grub; Gary Yamamoto first started using the hula grub about twenty years ago because it was the bait of choice in the West. From there, he continued to use hula grubs across the country from North to South to East with equal success. Overall, the double tail hula grub is the top producer in Yamamoto's hula grub product line.

Gary Yamamoto fishes the 5 " with a half-ounce jig head, surprisingly heavier than most people use, moved fast in a swimming motion. Throw to the bank, and as soon as it hits bottom, start reeling it to give it a fast action until it hits bottom again. Gary Yamamoto uses 16 to 20 lb. test line. He's not finesse fishing or using light line, but going for aggressive fish with a heavy flipping stick and baitcasting reel. He'll swim hula jigs in shallows from zero to ten feet more quickly than most people, bumping along bottom almost like you'd use a big-billed crankbait. If no fish are present or biting shallow, he'll switch to a heavier jig head without changing the bait, but switching into ten to twenty feet of water with a 5/8 or ¾ oz. jig head for fish that may be active at those depths. Yamamoto may go up to a one-ounce jig in water down to thirty feet deep. Just bounce bottom and reel quickly enough to keep from getting snagged while you swim the lure on a football head with a weedguard to deter snags.  (10 per pack)

The 4" double tail hula grub is a crawdad imitator extraordinaire! In downsized environments, ponds and small lakes, rig this bottom crawler with lighter weights of football heads and toss it into any cover, nook or cranny you can find. (10 per pack)

The Best

This is probably the best soft bait I have ever owned. Just use a jig head with a weedless hook and it will work wonders. I always catch fish on it

Just Awesome

The 4" Double-Tail Hula really shines as a downsized trailer on a football head. If clear water fish are getting picky in the summer time I have had really good success rigging this on a one ton football head and fishing it very fast. If that isn't working then go the other way with it on a 1/4 oz football head. Swimbait Nation: bfishin.

I especially like these for deep water football jig applications. These have reallly good action and are as durable as many other soft plastics. These can be used as a trailer on a jig or can be fished by themselves. Both ways catch fish. Great lure, just like other yamamoto products. SN name: bd pettit
