How to Rig for longer lasting soft baits?

I recently went fishing with the Berkley RealiStix Power Minnow Grub, it did produce fish but it ripped to easily after a couple of largemouth bass and i was wondering if there was a better way of rigging it so that it would last longer for me. thanks

unfortunatly theres realy not. bass hit realy hard and they have no mercy for there prey. you could try threading the bait a little further up the hook/line so that when he hits it it doesnt rip out but thats it.
This is what works for me- I have found that the name brand lures are too soft for my liking- they will not catch but one or two fish and have to be replaced- sometimes they go off the hook when the bait is casted-my method of dealing with this is to buy the generic lookalikes- I have found that they are almost always tougher then the name brands and cheaper also. I caught six bass today on one senko type generic lure before it came off the hook – I have found no decrease in the fish catching ability of the generics against the name brands, when it comes to the plastics- In fact I think the name brands are made soft so that you will have to buy two or three packs for each fishing trip- this increases their profits. Good luck and good fishing.
