Yum YDG5BK Soft Lures Review
Our verdict
The Yum YDG5BK soft lure pack delivers 30 baits for $10.99, a price that undercuts most single-pack soft plastics on a per-bait basis. With a 4.8 star average across 573 reviews and 500 or more bought last month, it stands as one of the higher rated bass baits in this comparison, backed by real buyer volume rather than a handful of reviews.

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less. The bars below show where this model stands against the other fishing gear and tackle we track in this category on price, popularity and size. Context, not marks against it, and our read of the data, not a lab test.
Overview
A bass angler filling out a tackle box for a full season needs volume, not just one or two lures per pack. The Yum YDG5BK ships 30 pieces of soft plastic in the Black/Blue Laminate color, each one weighing in at 0.63 pounds for the full bag, sized at 5 inches and built from plastic material aimed squarely at bass.
At $10.99, the Yum pack costs more upfront than the $5.99 EBPHWR, the $6.79 GMI2-WMPR, or the $5.99 GMG-NAT, though the GMI2-WMPR and GMG-NAT are both listed as single-piece items while the Yum bag holds 30. Where the Yum pulls ahead is rating: 4.8 stars across 573 reviews beats every Berkley alternative listed here, including the 2,063-review GMG-NAT at 4.2 stars and the 989-review EBPHWR at 4.4 stars. Bought last month sits at 500 or more, matching the top-selling EBPHWR pack.
For anglers who want a single, well-reviewed bass color in bulk rather than juggling several smaller packs, the YDG5BK's 30-piece count and 4.8 star average make it a straightforward pick. Buyers set on species other than bass or on a mixed-color assortment should look elsewhere in this lineup.
Pros
- 4.8 star average across 573 reviews, the highest rating of any soft lure in this comparison
- 30 pieces per pack keeps a tackle box stocked without repeat purchases
- Bought 500 or more times last month, matching the best-selling alternative
- 5 inch size fits standard bass presentations
- Black/Blue Laminate is a single, consistent color rather than a mixed assortment
- In stock and priced at $10.99
Cons
- Priced higher than the $5.99 to $6.79 Berkley alternatives in this set
- Only Bass is listed as the target species, so it is not marketed for other fish
- Only one color option, Black/Blue Laminate, with no listed variety
- Fewer total reviews than the 2,063-review Berkley GMG-NAT

Performance notes
The listed weight of 0.63 pounds covers the full 30-piece bag, which works out to roughly a third of an ounce per lure, in line with a soft plastic bait meant to be fished and lost or restocked regularly rather than treated as a single premium piece. A 5 inch length puts it in the middle range for bass baits, long enough for a Texas rig or a swimbait style presentation without needing to size down for smaller fish. The plastic material construction is standard for soft lures in this category and is what allows a 30-count bag to sell for $10.99 instead of the higher per-piece prices seen on hard baits or premium lure lines. Black/Blue Laminate is a common bass color choice for stained or low light water, though the listing does not offer alternate colors in this SKU, so anglers wanting a range of finishes will need to buy separate packs.
What buyers say
A 4.8 star average holding across 573 reviews is a wide enough sample to rule out a lucky run of early ratings, and it sits well above every Berkley alternative in this comparison, including the 4.2 star, 2,063-review GMG-NAT. Bought last month of 500 or more puts it on par with the best-selling EBPHWR pack, suggesting the high rating is not just a small niche following but reflects steady, repeat demand. A newer listing with fewer total reviews than the highest-volume Berkley baits here, but the combination of a high star average and strong recent purchase volume points to a product that is currently converting browsers into buyers at a solid clip.

Frequently asked questions
How many soft lures come in the Yum YDG5BK pack?
The pack ships 30 pieces in the Black/Blue Laminate color, all sized at 5 inches and built from plastic material. The full bag weighs 0.63 pounds, which comes out to roughly a third of an ounce per individual lure, in line with standard soft plastic bass baits.
What fish is the Yum YDG5BK meant for?
The listing specs Bass as the target species. Anglers fishing other freshwater or saltwater species should look at soft lures marketed for those fish specifically, since this pack is not positioned as an all-species option. At $10.99 for 30 pieces, it is priced as a dedicated bass bait rather than a general-purpose lure.
Is the Yum YDG5BK a good value compared to Berkley soft lures?
At $10.99 for 30 pieces, it costs more upfront than the $5.99 to $6.79 Berkley options in this comparison, but it also carries the highest rating of the group at 4.8 stars across 573 reviews, with 500 or more bought last month matching the top Berkley seller.
