Reaction Innovations' soft plastic baits are becoming the hottest baits in the bass fishing market. The reason for their success is easy to see once you get one of their baits in your hands. Reaction Innovations has been able to perfect fantastic two and three color shots that give the Sweet Beaver great swirl and two-tone patterns unlike anything you or the fish have ever seen. Also adding to the great success of the Sweet Beavers is the unique design. Owner and pro fishermen, Andre Moore, has taken his years of on the water experience and created a bait that is tough and compact, but moves a lot of water and has lots of action in almost any situation.
The body of the Sweet Beaver features forward facing ribs that create lots of pressure waves that let bass know something is moving and offers bass a texture that they seem to like when they inhale the lure. The centerline is recessed for better hook penetration but the 'nose' of the lure is thick to hold your hook without tearing on every fish. The long, flat, beaver tail is textured on the flat surfaces and along the edge, and it's splitable so you can have a twin tail look, an attention to detail not seen in most soft plastic lures. The Sweet Beaver also has additional tails set at 90 degrees to the beaver tail for fish attracting movement no matter which way the lure is moved.

Comments: Yall need to get yourself some of these! My dad caught his PB (7-8 pounder) on one of these texas rigged. SUCH A GREAT TRAILER TOO MAN! For jigs, mini jigs, awesome--awesome bait.
From: Azarel: Iowa 4/10/23
Comments: Get yourself some Dirty Sanchez beavers they are the bomb!! I use these baits in any color of water. Ive learned that they eat them best when the water is above 65 degrees. But they will in fact eat them all the time.
From: Zander: Waco, TX 2/5/22
Comments: Love these baits. Last 5 years made more money off of these than any other bait. However, I think Covid affected the QC, because there are a lot of imperfections in the baits I've been noticing, but will never stop buying them. Great Bait!
From: Willie: Illinois 10/16/21
Comments: Hands down my favorite flipping bait. I don't know what it is about this bait since it has very little action, but it just straight up gets munched in almost all situations whether I am flipping grass, wood, boulders, or docks. Magic craw swirl is my go-to color right, but I have had success on a bunch of other colors.
From: Eric: Wallingford, CT 8/23/21
Comments: I know the last thing we need is yet another review on Sweet Beavers, but I had to write one anyhow. If I had to live on one bait, the Sweet Beaver would be it. I've gone through dozens and dozens of packs in many different colors over the years and have caught God knows how many bass on this bait. I usually fish it Texas style pegged with a 1/16 ounce tungsten weight and 10 or 12 pound mono. I also fish it weightless sometimes. And if its windy, I put on more weight. I know that some anglers feel this bait needs more action, but the subtle wavering of the tail is all you need. You can add as much action to the bait as you want just by twitching it along. If it tears on one side, I flip the bait around and rig it up again and catch more fish on the same beaver. I don't think I've ever had a bent one either. The packaging is excellent. The newer packs are even larger which gives the baits breathing room to stay in perfect shape. I usually spray some kind of scent to each bait.
From: Ken: Tulsa, Oklahoma 6/1/21
Comments: i was finally able to fish three baits equally, Sweet beaver has no action but very durable and catches fish. the SK Rodent has no action but is coffee scented and fish devour it but bait only lat a few fish not durable. D-bomb has a lot of action and caught ten or more fish per bait and really catches fish also, i fish all three baits different days depending on my mood how i feel, but in my opinion D-bomb is king, action and durability wins every timeFrom: Christopher: Elizabethtown 9/4/20
Comments: They don't have much action, but that's precisely the point. In many situations, like cold water, post front, and calm clear water, a dead action type bait will outproduce one that flaps a lot, like a Pit Boss, Rage Bug, or similar creature. Skips well, and is equally good as a jig trailer or by itself. For cold water and tough situations, this is a great choice. I split the tail so the claws move slightly on the bottom like a crawfish. Favorite colors are the basic green pumpkin and black blue.From: Tyler P: Grand Junction, CO 3/21/20
Comments: I love these baits. I have some that have been hit by multiple bass & they are still usable. I use them on skirted jigs, TRs & rugby jigs. Favorite colors are taco truck & tramp stamp.From: Mick: Michigan 2/28/20
Comments: I'm sure these are great for jig trailers or light flipping duty. But the plastic is much softer than other brands I use for punching. I had to re rig it many times.
From: Ben: Stuart, FL 2/26/20
Comments: My only complaint is they stopped making the "warmouth color." Otherwise this is a go to creature style bait. Texas rig, chatterbait trailer, jog trailer, I've even used it on a swimbait hook and had great success. Incredible in the colder water.From: Ashley: Kentucky 12/4/19
Comments: I got tipped off on these by watching TacticalBassin with Matt & Tim. I wasn't a big flipping guy but I thought I'd give them a whirl, and boy have they made a believer in me. I love these things and they've become my #1 bait to flip. I always have one tied on now. The highest recommendation I can give them is to say, they've put money in my pocket. Great bait, end of story.From: Justin: AR 5/20/19
Comments: This beaver craw was a revolutionary design. It is one of the most successful lures to hit the soft plastics market in decades. Competitors must have loved the features of the Sweet Beaver. Strike King made a fortune copying the Sweet Beaver with their Rodent and Rage Bug. The Sweet Beaver is an excellent jig trailer, and a great finesse flipping bait on pressured fish.
From: John: Nashville, TN 5/16/19
Comments: The original and still a go to plastic bait for thousands of anglers across the country. Flippin, Pitchin, Punching, Swimming, Dragging..... Very few plastic baits have changed the game the way Reaction Innovations did when they came out with the Sweet Beaver. Simply put the Sweet Beaver has been the most imitated bait over the last decade for a reason this style bait catches them and few catch them better than the original.
From: Bill: WI 4/12/19
Comments: Best Flippin bait on the market.. period!! It doesn't look like much but has a very nice gliding action on the fall. Also when the tails are separated they flap and move very nicely. Best colors are Hematoma, dirty sanchez, and big Texan. With those colors you can fish any type of water muddy to crystal clear. You can flip rocks and lay downs with a simple Texas rig, and it punches the thickest of mats with ease! I have even used it with a nail weight for a Neko rig with great success around docks and rip rap! You can also cut them in half right down the seam and remove the small appendage and rig them as a spinnerbait or chatterbait trailer for a nice subtle action. The applications are endless. Give em a go, you won't be disappointed!
From: Unknown 3/5/19
Comments: Great Beaver bait! I love using this for flipping and texas rigging. Good all around bait!
From: William: Missouri 12/21/18
Comments: for all the snow birds that come down to Florida to flip a sweet beaver all you need is 3 colors, penetration, hematoma and tramp stamp thats it simple. they eat all these colors from the the kissimmee chain all the way to lake okeechobee but sometimes though i use backwater blue just to show them something different all the people that hate on this bait are fine by me, that leaves more for me and all the florida guys that use the ole stand by for flipping
From: Anthony - Florida
Comments: People complain and say "This Sweet Beaver has no action !" . I hear this all the time, but what they don't realize is that this bait glides erratically. Some of the best punchers in the business will admit that by using the smallest tungsten weight to penetrate heavy cover is the way to induce a natural gliding fall. Instead of Texas rigging, use a light swimbait hook that has a weight fixed in the center. This will give the correct action, especially when hopping / popping over and through cover. Swinging football jig heads also create a great trembling action when dragged across rocky bottoms. Reaction Innovations Sweet Beaver is still one of the best selling, tournament winning, and fish catching baits made. Tight Lines & Good Fishing !!!
From: William: Thomaston, GA 2/2/18
Comments: I've thrown a lot of beaver style baits before and this is by far my favorite, especially when the water temp drops and the bass are wanting something slower with a more subtle action, and that's just on the lakes, if you aren't Texas rigging these and throwing them in ponds you're doing something wrong, amazing baits... my personal preference is California 420
From: Unknonwn: 1/25/18
Comments: I have several different kinds of beaver style baits in my boat, but rarely fish them. That said, I recently fished a tournament where the fish were relating to submerged bushes and while several techniques worked to catch fish, flipping some sort of plastic did better than most. This bait hands down caught more fish for me than any other style in the Watermelon color. I was surprised since I didn't even add scent to it and I'm normally a very big believer in scent. The fish were hitting it so aggressively that they were only lasting 1 fish per bait. I was Texas rigging them, and they all tore at the same spot. A wacky worm ring helped solve this problem. Overall, this is my go-to flipping bait now.
From: Sean: Centennial, CO 5/26/17
Comments: I love these baits. I use them flipping in lay downs and logs around the bank. Watermelon red is my favorite color.
From: Unknown Lake texoma 5/21/17
Comments: As Zeke said, this bait is pretty durable but has absolutely no action. Even when resting on the bottom, the claws don't really move at all and the bait just sits there. The only way I'd really use it is when punching, as it is mostly a reaction bite and doesn't really require any action. If you're looking for action that's also good for finicky fish, go with the D Bomb.
From: Max: Weston, Fl 4/22/17
Comments: Great bait! Overall a good trailer for jigs. Quality soft bait for Texas rigging and punching.
From: Nate - Port Saint Lucie 3/10/17
Comments: On pressured waters this is becoming my go to flipping bait. I used jigs in the past, but the bass are to conditioned . However these beavers get it done. Dirty sanchez is the color I prefer.
From: Kyle: Ohio 11/21/16
Comments: No doubt, Sweet Beavers are THE bait to catch largemouths all summer long. When are others are throwing worms, spinner baits & crank baits, I'm picking up the nice fish that they are missing. Dirty Sanchez, Penetration and California 420 are my favorites.
From: Jim: WI 8/8/16
Comments: Best beaver style bait out there! I absolutely love this bait. I've been using them since I got into bass fishing and can't stop buying them. Keep it up.
From: Dominic: USA 8/1/16
Comments: Best beaver style bait out on the market caught a 15lb limit in a hour when nothing else was working
From: Logan: Farmland, IN 6/28/16
Comments: I have these lures in 4 different colors. Dirty Sanchez, Houdini, Smoke Red/Black & Watermelon. I also have the larger 5" version in California 420 & I have always had success with these baits. The action is ridiculously good & with the only scent application for them being salt buying these baits is a literal no brainer. BUY THESE BAITS!
From: Chris: Racine, WI 6/17/16
Comments: These are good baits the action isn't as good as the rage bugs but they do hold up better overall a good bait
From: Wyatt: FL 10/26/15
Comments: Great bait! I picked up a pack of the black and blue color & use them as jig trailers or just texas rigged. Caught quite a few bass before I begin to see any tear on the baits. Pitching them weightless under docks seems to always get me a fish or two on a day when nothing else works. Reaction Innovations keep it up!
From: Lex: MN 9/16/15
Comments: I picked up a pack of the Fried Watermelon & I now wish I would have bought more. I bank fish a lot, and lately these have been the only bait I grab for, I really like to Texas rig these bad boys, and watch the fish explode on them when I glide them over thick lilly pads, and the action on these things in the water is just awesome. These baits have also been the most durable for me, I have had less rips, and tars, and have been able to use the same bait over, and over to bring in multiple fish. Needless to say I will be buying more of these in the future.
From: Thomas: St. Croix Falls, WI 7/6/15
Comments: WOW! Simply THE best creature bait I've ever used. Texas rig it, peg it, jig trailer or weightless these baits CATCH FISH! Amazing gliding and flappin' action. Especially love the sprayed grass pattern in clear water.
From: Jake: Fort Wayne, IN 5/28/15
Comments: this is my favorite beaver style bait, and my confidence bait. i fish it on a swim jig ora shakey head. To get rid o that plastic smell use some pro cure craw attractant. great lure though, your missing out if you donate have at least 5pkcs of these.
From: Matthew: Lakeville, MN 4/3/15
Comments: Sure the baits smell like plastic, but they catch fish like nothing else. First time I ever bought them was just because there was 10 to a pack and I wanted the most bait for the least amount of money. I have not bought another beaver Bait since. They were just my favorite jig trailer but then I tried flipping them and the second tree I flipped I got a 4 1/2 lber. I love them so much.
From: Drew: Pillager, MN 3/14/15
Comments: Still whacking em. They DO smel like plastic, probably because they are made of plastic, but squirt in some smelly jelly (into the bag) and that problem is solved. Super size your jig by putting one of these on the back.
From: Jay6: USA 9/21/14
Comments: These are some of the meanest flippin' baits I've ever used! when fish are pressured, I use these baits with much success!
From: Kevin: TN 7/11/14
Comments: Pairs nicely on a MESU Raptor swim jig; caught my personal best on a 1/2oz green/purple/wtrmelon and a Violator trailor. Same 1 bait held up through 6 fish and could've still kept going.
From: Patrick: Milwaukee, WI 6/3/14
Comments: I only fish California and Dirty Sanchez most of the time. Has anyone noticed that the past year or so the colors they are putting on the shelves has changed drastically? Dirty Sanchez and California are not the same color they were 2 years ago, or anything close to it. Frustrating because I am frantically searching for a replacement or a pack of the old color style.
From: Chris: AL
Comments: these are my favorite soft plastic baits as trailers and texas rigs. These were one of my first soft plastic baits i used when i started bass fishing and i still use them almost every time i go out bass fishing
From: Dave: CA
Comments: Absolutely LOVE these baits. My personal favorite color is Dirty Sanchez. I keep two baits tied on at ALL times. a spinner bait and a Beaver. I fish em Texas rigged and catch fish. Put em behind a jig and catch fish. Punch em and catch fish. Throw em like a Senko and guess what...catch fish. As far as plastics go this is by far my "confidence" bait. I have a lot of luck on the river with smallies and spots when i pitch it up on the bank and drag it in the water. Sorry for the rant but DO like these baits.
From: Kevin: Mt. Juliet, TN
Comments: These baits are great for the fisher on a budget. Though they don't have all the action that a lot of soft plastics do, they do have durability. And when the fish want a little less action these are the way to go. Plenty of colors to choose from and 10 to a pack for only $5! that's a steal! I also like the slightly smaller profiles of these compared to other "rodent" style baits. I usually texas rig these but after reading reviews I'm going to start using them as a trailer.
From: Sean: OR
Comments: These bait's r awesome either with a jig or by itself texas rig.From: Nitroman: Muskegon MI
Comments: best bait by far I have ever fished I flip em and use them as a jig trailer.From: Bob: Diamond Valley Lake
Comments: fished the magic craw swirl and watermelon red!! went through them like butter!! this bait out does any bait that I fished with.. best bait EVER!!!!From: Matthew: Milwaukee, WI
Comments: Zeke, its not always a bunch of action that you want your bait to have. The claws on these move back and forth when stood up on the bottom. One of my favorite punch baits. Backwater blue and dirty sanchez get the job done.
From: Bryce: Trabuco canyon california
Comments: Fantastic bait. Fished the white trash color near eddies in the river or near the edges of weedbeds on inland lakes. Fish with a VMC Rugby head and fish it like a jig. Definitely going to be one of my new go-to lures.
From: Mark: Elkhart, IN
Comments: Very durable baits but absolute crap when it comes to action, I get more action throwing a bare hook and fishing on credit then with these baits.
From: Zeke: FL
Comments: Dirty Sanchez is the color to use. Place it on the back of a Triple Rattle Back jig in green pumpkin or dark green pumpkin. It works really well on Jordan Lake, NC.From: Dan: Cary, NC
Comments: Pure radness. Dudes were fighting over these when they first came out, but now everyone can enjoy em. Flipped, pitched, weightless, on a shakey head, or just texas rigged, they catch fish, and good ones. Not durable at all, but that is why mend-it is around. Been slayin the fatties for over a decade, so if you dont fish 'tha beave' then you kinda suck.
From: meatwad: huntin beaver
Comments: Got a pack of Xmas pumpkin a couple week back and decided to give them a try. Put one behind a jig and Bam! Fish on. Also tied it on a Texas rig, got three in about 20 min. These baits are very durable too. One last note te baits are not scented so the action speaks for itself.From: Ryan: Chitown, IL
Comments: When money is on the line, and I am flipping weeds, wood, or any heavy nasty cover, the RI Beaver is my go to bait. Durability. not so much, but they catch, and that's what counts. There are alot of knock offs out there, and most of them can't touch the Sweet Beaver. It's Reaction Innovations or nothing for me.
From: Brad: NY
Comments: This is by far my favorite Soft plastic for jigging. I use the Hematoma and the California 420 and i love them. They have pretty good durability and last for a while. The are really BOSS and catch a lot of fish.From: Henry: San Luis Obispo, CA
Comments: Still whackin em after all these years. Add a punch skirt and take your friend's money!
From: Meatwad: not donating
Comments: These baits are killer on my home waters of Lake Champlain! Get in the grass and flip and pitch your heart out! You'll fill your boat in a hurry! Fish on!
From: Nick: Colchester, VT
Comments: Best ever, it's simple, they produce fish and quality ones too. A little hard, but it does not seem to bother the bass!
From: Kollin: USA
omments: this is the all time best flip bait and jig trailer in the world this my alltime time all year round i use all the sizes and almost all the colors all i can say if i had to have to pick one bait to use for the rest of my life i would teaxs rig this with a 1/4 to 3/8 oz bullet weight BUY THIS BAIT
From: Shawn: Windsor, Ontario, Canada
Comments: These are my fav Creature soft baits 4.20 Green Pumpkin. I catch so many bass on these. Also split the leaf in half it gets bite more
From: Sonny: East Wareham, MA
Comments: The BEST creature bait on the market! This is my go to flipping and jig trailer bait. Colors I prefer are backwater blue, big texan, bloody mary, coonasty, juicy, hematoma and magic craw swirl. They all seem to do really well in my local waters. Just tie one on and go catch some fish!
From: Eric: Northern California
Comments: Dude! these are just the best flippin bait ever.... i was flippin this bait today, into and around the weed matts were the bass had been piling up to get some shade, and since this baits is so good at gettin in and out of thick cover. I whacked em! caught a 5 pounder, two 4 pounders, and a bunch of fish at or below 3 pounds in only about an hour. rigged a green pumkin one with a 1/4 oz tungsten weight and a 3/0 gamkatsu superline worm hook with 15 pound seagar Abrazx. From: A.J.: Florida
Comments: This bait was perfectly designed to catch fish. The larger body profile coupled with smaller appendages makes it easy to pitch under docks, small areas and punch mats. Biologically, fish are programmed to eat it. I own several different colors but my favorite is green pumpkin with the tips died in chartreuse and orange spike it. Won a couple tournaments last year on this bait. From: Mike: St. Louis, MO
Comments: Amazing creature bait for flippin' and pitchin'. My go-to tournament bait.
From: Joe: Hartsdale, NY
Comments: This is my go to bait, even on those tough days so many of us experience. i have caught a ton of my better fish on it and always have one tied on even if they are deep i got one rod i use for them and it is always on the deck of my boat. From:Jeremy: Glenpool, OK
Comments: I use them for flippin and as a trailer on jigs. Love them.
From:Earl: Campbellsville, KY
Comments: Have been using as jig trailers...works well!
From:Paul: Lake Hickory, NC
Comments:Great flipping bait, I recommend putting a nail in the front... gives it a different look.
From:Buzand: Castaic Lake, CA
Comments:A good bait for flipping. I have caught some kicker largemouth and smallmouth on it. I'll actually do well fishing it on a 1/4 oz. or 3/8 oz. shakey head...like the Reaction Innovations or Picasso. I stick with the stand bye green pumpkin and black/blue type colors.
From:Jon: East Fallowfield, PA
Comments: A versatile bait. The Sweet Beaver is good flipping bait, with decent size and good bulk. But it excels as a whole. Dragging, Carolina rigging, jig trailer. Ive had good success with a light T-rig, including one tournament win and many kicker fish.
