Really dig this review format, straight to the point, no fluff and informative, keep these coming Debo!

@law1831 9 ай бұрын

The first time i ever threw it, i caught big fish on 3 casts in a row. I rigged it weightless on a 4/0 hook. It reminds me a lot of the senko but just with a faster fall. When it falls on slack line, that tail just wags slowly, like a raccoon tail, hence the tanuki bait. Its actually a pretty cool bait. It fishes good in the same places youd fish a football jig. If you keep the rod tip down and twitch it like a jerkbait, the darts and glides side to side off the bottom, similar to that deps bullflat

Love to see another voice over video. I only tried the Yama Tanuki only once, i used the Mustad Grip pin 5/0 hooks. The plastic held for 3 to 4 fish each. It is a legit Debo Dink magnet, i think I emptied the pond of all the dinks.

Wendell got me hooked on these. I tried the Yamamoto Yamatanuki on super hot day , nailed 2 bass in same area right I tied it on. I glued the EWG to the head , that helped. They are a pretty cheap bait but I can't find in the store so I have to order them at Tackle Warehouse

@eng62ine 9 ай бұрын

I haven't used this type of bait, but would definitely give it a shot. I find that I like trying different baits so as not to get into a rut fishing the same stuff over and over again. Cheers brother and a Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

@gatorsadventures2298 9 ай бұрын

I used it over the summer and really enjoyed it. I started with the screw lock hooks and didn't lose many. It cast a mile and accurate as well.

Put a wacky ring over the top and it’ll help with blowouts a little. I don’t even throw a Senko anymore since I got these. Let em sink, pop em, so many ways to fish. VMC ring hooks work great.

Haven't fished it, was going to get a couple packs for my younger cousins in HS who would get a kick out of fishing a "poop" bait, but didn't get out very often in 2023 due to work. Maybe give it a try next year now that the faint ice has shown up on the small ponds.

@rvfishingyet 9 ай бұрын

I would try a durable plastic version of it certainly (missile baits perhaps). I like the gliding action. Things like the hover rig, and overall gliding presentation - something new to show the fish.

@Snap-Time 9 ай бұрын

I love the Yamatanuki, caught my PB the first time i ever fished with it. A screw lock is an absolute must though, without it the plastic rips from just casting.

@brucenichols9206 9 ай бұрын

After hearing you describe mend it .. the way you said it smells made me think of liquid bandage . hook slot tore up after catching two with a 4/0 I just realized I have a ton of 45 degree hooks here up to 6/0 for the brush jig mold and screw locks

@SimonC82686 9 ай бұрын

I like the yamatanuki with a 5/0 ewg and use mend it to repair the torn baits. When I tried them with the screw lock ewg's, the screw lock tears out a little chunk of the tip so they don't really repair well with mend it, probably could the melted plastisol to repair them if you're using screw locks.

@tims_always_fishing7117 9 ай бұрын

Put mend it on the screw before you thread it in.

Hey D! Thanks for doing the review on this. I picked up 3 packs before the 2023 season and never even opened them.

@corybodiker6243 9 ай бұрын

I use the Ryugi Pierce Weighted Screwlock Wide Gap Hook and the TC Ryugi screw lock wide gap. They work better than the owner in my opinion, and the weighted one gives it some pretty nice action and gets it down there and allows it to dance around. and I use the 4/0 .

@Dj.fishing084 9 ай бұрын

I've been interested it trying this thing out. The depps poop bait seams a little more durable but I think I'd probably pick up both to try.

@chrisrus53 9 ай бұрын

One thing I've though about to get a little more feel is using 30 or 40lb braid but I worry about hindering the fall rate. Anxious to try the 💩 again next spring.

This bait is a bank fisherman dream .i use a mustad 91768 30 degree jig hook with a screwlock. 4/0 with a extra large scewlock for the 3.5 and a 1/0 with a large scewlock for the 2.5.the 2.5 is great for bfs

@Triple87 9 ай бұрын

Great lure. I stand by them. They’re fantastic. They straight catch fish. Weighted, weightless. Works awesome. I crushed bass on it all fall.

@134rwa 9 ай бұрын

I really like this lure, I've had much success with it. I rig mine a little different because I'm pulling them through grass and pads. I started with the screw type 4/0 EWG, but it rips the lure so much on a bite, I'll be getting some of that Mend it. I use a regular 4/0 EWG, and found it doesn't tear up as much, and I also don't place the hook in the slot, I place the hook through the thick part and juxtapose the point. In the slot I pick up more pad stalks and grass. I'll probably use the slot again when the pads and grass go dormant for the Winter.

@danielpomponio4967 9 ай бұрын

I used the yamatanuki over the summer as a substitute to the cover scat. I like the action on the 3.5 compared to the 2.5. The 2.5 seems a but too small for my applications. Durability on these is poor as you mentioned. I think I prefer the cover scat over the yamatanuki. Price is better on the yamatanuki but durability is worse. I picked up some spin nuts to compare to these. Caught my PB on the cover scat so these lures do work. Great lure/category to talk about.

@benwilkey2060 9 ай бұрын

This looks like it would be a great flipping bait or jig alternative. I understand the idea of throwing it on heavy fluorocarbon but part of me wonders if going braid to leader would help with the numbness of not having lead or tungsten to transmit bottom feel.

@DEBOSFishing 9 ай бұрын

Yep, I think that would help with the sensitivity!

@pacman_17 9 ай бұрын

I don't have a ton of confidence bottom fishing with soft plastic. I'll probably have to do it next early spring. But I'm getting some power finesse hard lures for next season.

@DavidBronstein1961 9 ай бұрын

I’ve had zero luck with the Yamamoto version and killed em on the Deps Cover Scat. Not sure why. the Cover Scat has saved me from a skunk on multiple occasions when even the Senko wasn’t getting me any bites. And I’m not a JDM snob by any means. And yes you gotta use screw lock hooks otherwise nose does blow out after a few feesh

@ukstorm2727 9 ай бұрын

Have the yamatanuki as well as the cover scat, caught a few fish on both, mostly used it for skipping docks, very interesting you are using a Dobyns 5 power for it, I live dangerously so I was throwing them on a Champion 703 and #14 sniper , I have a Champion XP 735 , may try that out with some heavier line , btw, I think the Missile Baits Bomba has a slower fall so may pick them up for skipping
