Bottom Line
The Maxscent Creature Hawg takes a very unique approach to the beaver-style soft bait. It's altered texture and color patterns look amazing in the water, and this with MaxScent makes this an extremely effective pitching bait.
Anglers have become very fond the the MaxScent feature, as this often leads to bass holding on just a bit longer when they bite. This feature would also play a role in more pressured systems, where bass need a bit more convincing when it comes to eating.
Having a bag of these when pitching heavy cover is a no-brainer.
