These were homemade but I will get some  commercial options out this weekend and display them......I also use crickets when available........but I think waxies or pinched wigglers and crawlers would be fine........I do fish with worms on occasion but grass shrimp are readily available all year since we rarely have ice formation.......additionally it's easier to fish them now as I employ ice in my shrimp bucket during the hotter months of the year to keep them firm for durability......I go to 1/32 ounce late winter becuse it gives me a better chance to  land all species.........Thanks

Where did you get these from? We don’t have grass shrimp available here so what would you tip them with? Piece of red worm or Waxies?

Think these would work all year long here since I quite often use 1/64 ounce jigs tipped with very small plastics and long cast them on 2-3# mono.

Here's a few Kelly.......the sickle is great for adding a live grass shrimp which remain active in colder temperatures......

I agree Tony.....Jim has created a champion olive grass shrimp and people have admired it ever since I have captured the production I have experienced with it in 2012 and this year as well.....

I like the splash of red. It nearly always does well for me.
