I love fishing a lizard, especially this time of year. I Texas rig a 8" Zoom lizard. I have been catching a bunch of nice bass the past couple of weeks on junebug and green pumpkin. Two weeks ago I caught a really big bass over 6 lbs.
I went and bought lures for the first time ever with my friend and he told me he would always get bite on the lizard so I got them, I ended up catching 4 bass with them

The bass were chewing them yesterday on Table Rock Lake in Missouri. Threw a Zoom green pumpkin with the tail Spike-It Dip-N-Glo Garlic red for years. Recently switched to a Z-Man LizardZ - which looks identical to Zoom but they are indestructible. You cannot wear one out. A Kentucky took it way down the gullet and before I dealt with the 3/0 flippin' hook I pulled the lizardz (which was half swallowed) up and out knowing it would rip. Ran if up the line and after I got the hook out I re-hooked it and it looked and fished like new. Elaztec will not tear but there is zero need to expose your hook. Leave it buried to where it's completely weedless however when one bites it that hook point will come shooting out like "where's the party!" Forgot to add I was free rigging it but Texas rig does well too. That weightless slow drift effect you say you like is also achieved with a free rig.
I’ve had a 4” Green Pumpkin Yum Lizard on a 1/20th oz. Split-Shot rig for the past month or so. It’s been a great alternative to a Drop-Shot rig and I’ve caught bass on it that rejected other faster moving lures. My only complaint is that the 4” isn’t available in enough colors… especially the new ones!
Anyone think the tail is a bit on the long side and decide to trim it a bit to increase hook ups? Or does the reduction in bait swim action outweigh the fact that the hook is closer to the fish’s mouth with a trimmed tail?
If you watch a bass eat (usually) itll inhale the entire bait. Its the same with a 10in worm. If you’re worried about hookin up switch to a 5/0 ewg so the point is further down the body but your appendages still have good action. Hope this helps. Tight lines🎣🎣🤙

Look at your color choice for your water condition. Darker water darker the color. Cleaner the water the More translucent the color.
Yum has been killing it on the new bait colora and profiles.
Thanks
