Micro Finesse LarvaZ Performance Review - Ultra Lite

Спорт

Topic: 1-3/4 inch LarvaZ (Part 1). Having had previous success with the other three Micro Finesse lures introduced by Z-Man in 2022, the last tiny lure to test was the 1-3/4 inch LarvaZ. This video spotlights the Green Pumpkin colored LarvaZ mounted on a 1/30 oz Micro Finesse ShroomZ jighead. A companion video, coming soon, demonstrates the success Pink Glow colored ones. Conclusion: the LarvaZ performed surprisingly well for bass in cold, early February, West-Central Missouri water.
Rudie Tootie shows his "wings" and does tricks for his fans, too!
Enjoy the Show!

    Thank you, Virgillio, and I'm glad you enjoyed the show. I have enjoyed using all four of these new (2022) Micro Finesse lures. Each is unique, and add new options for panfish angling. The bonus is that Bass love little morsels, too. I doubt there are any real larvae crawling around in this cold water yet, but the fish sure loved them. Best wishes. Don

    This is really the “Rootie Tootsie Show”! He is such a sweet beautiful boy! Yup, does has wings! 🥰. WOW the little Micro Finesse Larvaz are just awesome!! Doesn’t matter what kind of fish sees them, they are a winner. Lots of nice big bass. I noticed someone mentioned in your comments these little Larvaz for trout….my thoughts too in the Glow Pink! What an exciting show and lots of fun :-))) can’t wait for warmer water to go fishing with you. 👍RTR!!! Lorraine 😘

    Thanks Sis. This combo of moving to West Central and having "access" hahaha 😆 😂 to these fishing spots is very exciting so far. Hope it never gets old! Rudie Tootie loves doing tricks and is quite the Cutsey Wootsey little fat buddy...as you saw Wednesday. Speaking of little - remember that crazy small bluegill jig I made last year? The QR (Quantum Realm) TootieZ worked like a champ and filled the freezer with big bluegill! I didn't think of using pink though. 😆 I think you will like Part 2 with the pink glow LarvaZ too. Teensie Weensie! Xxxxxoo RTR 🦇 🦇 🦇 Don

    Thanks, Bill. I finally got around to testing the new LarvaZ... perfect time of the year 🙌 😅 🙃. Crazy little things surprised me! I changed colors, and the 2d upcoming video shows the Pink Glow color works great, too. Prospects for 2023 are looking really good. Stay safe out there in the icebergs. Don

    Those micro jigs worked real well, I believe those would be good for the big bluegills too. Take care Thanks for sharing

    Thanks, Big L. Those little jigs had an excellent hook up and land ratio... surprised me because they are so tiny. The fall rate on the bouyant LarvaZ was perfect. Yes, every bluegill that nibbled/slurped got caught. I'll show some keeper sized bluegill in Part 2 on a pink LarvaZ. Needle nosed pliers were a must! This is a real learning experience for an old angler! Best wishes, Don

    Thanks, PF. I didn't see your comment when it came in; things like that happen to my YT from time to time. Those LarvaZ are so tiny and excellent for panfish. The smallest size of Micro ShroomZ are the perfect size and will hook everything. Have a great week, Don

    A Trout Magnet head (1/32 oz shad dart, basically) also works with the tiny Larvaz bodies.

    Thanks for the tip, BA, much appreciated. When Z-man named these tiny lures "micro" they weren't kidding. Last year I made what I called a Quantum Realm (QR TootieZ 😆 😂) and used other tiny hooks. Worked great, too. Best wishes, Don

    Good morning to you, too, Grumpy Dave. I suspect there's not many LarvaZ crawling around the waters of the Cape and it's possible that there's none here either - other than the ones I threw in the water. Gotta love ❤️ it!! God bless. Don

    How do you think they would work on a micro drop shot rig? Love all your videos can’t wait for the ice to melt here in Michigan

    Thanks, Greg. You guys have a lot more ice than we do here in West Central MO, for sure. We had another ice-over on the small waters the week before, but it melted with the weekend warm front. These LarvaZ are buoyant and might work great on a micro dropshot, too. I couldn't tell if the fish grabbed it on the fall or picked it up from the bottom; typical no-feel fishing. If you try the drop shot technique and it works, be sure to let us know! God bless, Don

    Thanks so much, Jeff. We are having fish tacos for the Super Bowl from crappie and bluegill caught on this trip (Part 2 of this adventure). I was skeptical of the LarvaZ tiny size, so I didn't buy any till recently. However, I stumbled upon a couple of vids that talked them up but didn't show any actual fish.... so I got the wild idea to do my Show and Tell thing. It was a pleasant surprise to see how well the Green Pumpkin (and upcoming Pink Glow color) enticed the fish. As a Missouri Show-Me guy, I was definitely showed that they worked in cold water while there's likely no real larvae crawling around. It was impressive, and I learned a lot. Rudie is a show off, hahaha, and fingers are crossed for the Chiefs this Sunday. Best wishes, Don

    Gary, I think so. I think this is the earliest I've fished in February so all this is a bit historic and a learning experience. Despite the frigid water, lots of smaller 11-13" bucks on the banks in some spots. Nearly all the sizeable girls were getting plump tummies and hanging out in fairly shallow water. 2023 looks great so far 👌 👍 All the best, Don
