V & M Baits Split Tail Beaver

The V & M Split Tail Beaver is an absolutely killer bait! The wide, meaty body and subtle appendages make for an awesome and versatile soft plastic.

This bait mimics a crawfish well when dragged in deep water on a Carolina rig! When fishing a Carolina rig, make sure to make a sidesweep style hookset when you detect a bit.

For a beefier profile, try rigging the Split Tail Beaver on your favorite flipping jig! The wide body of the beaver causes the bait to glide to the bottom instead of plummeting rapidly.

If you are looking to flip, pitch, or punch shallow vegetation, there is not a better rig out there! Rig the Split Tail Beaver on a 4/0 or 5/0 straight shank, flipping style hook with a 1/2 to 1 oz tungsten weight! Also, make sure to use a snell knot with this rig to increase your hook-up ratio. Check out the video for specific tips for how to rig it this way!
