With the Menace or twin tail grub trailer for a swim jig, do you rig it parallel with the hook or perpendicular like you would with a craw? I read when using single tail grub tail down..need some help. Thanks

"With the Menace or twin tail grub trailer for a swim jig, do you rig it parallel with the hook or perpendicular like you would with a craw?" The fish will tell you if you let them... When they're feeding heavily on bait fish (brim/shad etc) perpendicular gets bit more and when their foraging more on crayfish, of course parallel. "I read when using single tail grub tail down." Yes rig it tail down so that during the retrieve, the tail rises up directly behind the hook. "need some help. Thanks" Hope that helps...

 

BTW, my most often used trailer is a Lobster but will change to any one of my others as needed. On deep ledges, I'll often use a Thumper, Anaconda or ReCon Worm as a trailer.

I like the SK super chunks, and the small salty chunks.  But I will use any plastic in the tackle bag as a trailer.

I got these two 3/8 oz Swim Jigs for a steal on eBay. They are made by Custom Bait Co. One is the blue gill color the other is yellow perch. Any suggestion on color and trailer for the yellow perch? Thanks!

Rage Chunk, Rage Craw, Reaction Innovations sweet beaver, netbait paca chunk, Havoc Pit Boss, Double Tail Grub, and Yamamoto Kreatures are may favorites

I like the Rage chunks, Paca chunks, Havoc Grass Pigs, and Zoom fat alberts

Best jigs are at SiebertOutdoors.com (that one was easy).

 

My favorite trailer has been the Yamamoto Medium Craw but I have a bunch of the Yamamoto Psycho Dads

that might knock the Medium Craw off of its throne.

 

Now on Swim jigs (Bloody Shad from SiebertOutdoors.com is the best), I like a 5" white Yamamoto grub or a 4" Yamamoto Swim Senko.
