The Big Bite Baits Curl Tail Grub is a classic multi-species soft plastic designed for walleye, crappie, bass, smallmouth, panfish and other freshwater gamefish. Featuring a ribbed body and high-action curl tail, this versatile fishing grub produces swimming action and vibration whether it is cast, jigged, retrieved or trolled.
The classic curl-tail design creates continuous movement as the bait travels through the water. The thin curved tail responds to the retrieve and water movement, creating a natural swimming action that makes the Curl Tail Grub effective at both faster and slower presentation speeds.
A ribbed soft plastic body adds texture and profile while complementing the movement of the tail. The simple design allows anglers to rig the Curl Tail Grub in several different ways and adapt it to a wide variety of freshwater fishing situations.
One of the most effective ways to fish the Big Bite Baits Curl Tail Grub is on a jighead. Thread the grub onto an appropriately sized jighead and cast, swim or vertically jig the bait based on water depth, target species and fishing conditions.
For walleye fishing, pair the Curl Tail Grub with a jighead and work it along points, breaks, rock, gravel, weed edges and other productive structure. The active tail creates movement during both the retrieve and fall, providing a compact baitfish-style presentation for walleye.
The Curl Tail Grub can also be used for walleye trolling. Its active tail provides swimming action as the bait moves through the water, making it a versatile soft plastic option when anglers need to cover water.
For crappie, rig a smaller Curl Tail Grub on a lightweight jighead and fish it around brush, docks, weed edges, suspended fish and other crappie-holding structure. Cast and retrieve the bait or vertically jig it depending on the location and activity level of the fish.
The smaller sizes are also excellent for panfish, including bluegill and other species feeding on small minnows, insects and aquatic forage. A light jighead allows the grub to maintain a compact presentation while the curl tail adds movement.
For largemouth bass, fish the Curl Tail Grub around grass, docks, points, shorelines and other areas where bass are feeding on small baitfish. It can be used as a compact standalone soft plastic or added as a trailer to compatible bass lures.
For smallmouth bass, work the grub around rock, gravel, points, flats and other structure. Its compact profile provides a useful baitfish presentation when smallmouth are feeding on smaller forage.
The Big Bite Baits Curl Tail Grub can also be used as a trailer on spinnerbaits, underspins, bladed jigs and other presentations when anglers want to add additional tail movement and profile.
Fisherman's Central carries the Big Bite Baits Curl Tail Grub in 1-inch, 2-inch and 3-inch sizes, allowing anglers to select a presentation based on target species, forage size and fishing technique.

The 2-inch Curl Tail Grub provides a versatile size for crappie, panfish and other freshwater species where a compact soft plastic presentation is needed.
The larger 3-inch Curl Tail Grub provides additional profile for walleye, bass, smallmouth and other gamefish while retaining the classic curl-tail swimming action.
