I have heard that Yamamoto's are pretty good. Also, what size is best for jig trailers? Is three inches too small?

Chompers,Zoom.
I've also been looking at both of those. Which zoom product are you referring to? Is the creepy crawler, or the double tailed fat albert?

I have absolutely no luck on double tail grubs.....I have no Idea why either.
Single tail grubs are another story and are my favorite baits right now....Go figure....

yamamotos are imo the best. 99% of the time my jig trailer is a yamamoto double tail and always seems to produce. id say stick with 5 and 4 inch double tails, 2 perfect sizes. i cant find the 3 inchers anywhere in my area.

Selective Harvest On Bass, Or Pay The Price
- LocationGrand Junction, Colorado
- My PB:Between 6-7 lbs
- Favorite Bass:Largemouth & Smallmouth
- Favorite Lake or River:The Yampa River, Colorado's best smallmouth fishery. Lots of 2 - 4 pound, obese bronze bombers in this river. Connected Lakes is my favorite lake, just a group of small gravel pits, no bigger than 100 acres. No monsters, but lots of 2 - 5 pound largemouths and the odd 6 - 7.

I prefer the creepy crawler by zoom for a jig trailer, but when fishing a plain jighead I like the yamamotos best. Chompers and many others make great double grubs though too.

I've had good luck with the Zoom Fat Albert as a trailer. I haven't tried the Creepy Crawler, so thanks for the heads up Iceintheveins.
I'd rather be fishing

On a ball head as the primary bait, I agree. But on a football head, as a trailer for a skirted bait.....double tails are awesome.

Yes the creepy crawler, I put them on small lead head jigs and as a trailer for other small jigs with skirts. But I like the Chompers alot ! When you open a bag of Chompers you will know it,'the garlic smell makes me hungry! The Chompers twin tail has a little skirt on the head and my go to colors are=watermelon/green pumpkin, dark melon pepper,watermelon/red purple flake.I had my first 6 lb. smallmouth on a Chompers!

Thanks for the feedback you guys.
Okay, I am going to try both and see which one I like better. I basically had them narrowed down to those two choices. The creepy crawlers cost less per pack as well as have more in a pack, however I am looking forward to test the chompers' scent.
