Quick take
Five-inch soft plastic grubs with a pulsating tail action, rigged on jigheads or used as trailers on spinnerbaits and buzzbaits.
This 5-inch Yamamoto single tail grub comes 20 to a pack in a smoke color with large black flake. Its curly tail gives it a swimming wobble, and it works alone or as a trailer behind a spinnerbait, buzzbait or swim jig. Bass anglers are the main audience, though pike and walleye anglers can use it too.

About this type
A lure is an artificial bait that draws a strike with its shape, color and movement.
Each kind is built for certain depths and ways of fishing.
Weight decides how far a lure casts and what rod and line it needs; color changes how visible it is in the water.
