The Yum Baby CrawBug is unique to crawfish imitating soft plastics because it was designed to be a jig trailer. This bait is perfectly designed to be thread on the hook shaft of either a round ball or a finesse style flipping jig to mimic a natural crawfish.
The 2" Baby CrawBug can also be Texas-Rigged and used as finesse bait where the situation might call for a downsized bait offering. As with all Yum soft plastics, this bait is injected with Yum (Crawfish Flavor) and salted to prolong even the most hesitant bite.

The 4” Yum Wooly Hawg Craw has the bulk and lifelike appearance to fool even the seasoned bass of high-pressured impoundments.
An extension of Yum's highly successful lineup of Wooly baits, the Wooly Hawg Craw gives fishermen a creature bait with a twist by combining the vibration creating ribs of a wooly bait with the craw pinchers of the Yum Chunk and the twin tails of the Wooly Hawg Tail.
The result is a flippin' bait with bulk that is ready made for power fishing in cover situations.
The Yum Wooly Hawg Craw is truly a different animal that has a lot of fish-attracting motion in a compact pitching and flipping bait.
Specifics Include:
Packed 8 to a bag Length: 4" Available in 16 colors

Yum's new 5" Houdini Shad is heads and tails above all other soft plastic jerkbaits because it has more tricks than the competition.
The Houdini Shad stands out above all others because of its unique tail design which allows the bait to be fished four different ways with very little modification. The tail can be worked as a paddle for a slow fall, an open paddle for a fast fall, or a traditional V-tail which is ideal for highly pressured fish.
The Houdini Shad can also be modified to act as a flapper tail and fished just under the surface to create a flitting shad presentation. The Houdini Shad is loaded with LPT and is designed to mimic an injured baitfish.
The Houdini Shad is designed to mimic an injured baitfish. Its erratic side-to-side action is easily created with a twitch of the rod tip due to a slow fall rate that is caused by its hollow body cavity that catches water and slows the bait’s descent.
Of course, the Houdini Shad includes LPT - Live Prey Technology and YUM. It's great for bass fishing.

When you are looking for more vibration and a larger profile, this is the lizard for you. The Yum Zellamander, available in 5" and 7", combines the body of a lizard with “hawg” style tails.
The 5" Zellamander is great for sight fishing and the 7" can be flipped or Carolina rigged especially for big fish! The unique twin tail design will move more water and attract fish from further distances. Superb for bass fishing.
The legs of the Zellamander create more vibration than any other soft plastic lizard in history. The Zellamander is better than anything else because there has never been one and because it creates more vibrations than any other lizard made.
Specifics
Include:
Packed 10 to a bag Lengths: 5 and 7" Available in 18 colors

The 6" Houdini Worm will work like it's trying to get out of a straight jacket on every cast because of its subtle constitution and flat bottomed design.
The Houdini Worm's flat bottom allows the worm to dart side to side or down with just a simple twitch of the rod tip. The bait naturally searches back and forth as it sinks or rises from the rod movement. This action is very lifelike and will fool even the most stubborn of fish, making it an ideal soft plastic selection for clear water situations.
The Houdini Worm will be effective anytime of the year, but it will be particularly effective during the post-spawn when fish are hesitant to hit a topwater lure but are still looking for easy prey to rebuild their strength and weight. After all, even the best escape artists will ultimately meet a trap they can't escape.
Especially good for bass fishing.

Nearly every predator fish preys on shad.
The 4" Yum G-Shad hones in on fish’s predatory instincts by offering the most realistic artificial shad ever produced. The Yum G-Shad’s clear body and realistic decoration patterns perfectly mimic a shad. Its shad tail provides maximum vibration and swimming action to give it a lifelike swimming appearance.
What truly separates 4" Yum G-Shad from all other swim baits is Live Prey Technology. LPT contains the natural shad enzymes that are released when a shad is under distress.
Combine the 4" Yum G-Shad's lifelike appearance and LPT and each cast you'll have a lure that mimics one of nature's losing battles.
Specifics Include:
Packed 5 to a bag Length: 4" Available in six colors
