I don't have much experience fishing football jigs, so I was wondering:  What do you guys use as trailers for them?

The FLW chunk. Or uncle gosh pork.

Rage Craws

twin tail grubs

Super Speed Craws

Ultra Vibe Speed Craws

Pit Boss

 

Just to name a few.

I have found flipping/pitching/swimming craws that outperform (at least for me) the Riot Baits Fuzzy Beaver, but I'm telling ya, that thing is a killer jig trailer. A lot of my winter fish last year were caught on a football jig with a RB Fuzzy Beaver. 

Depends on the size of the football jig.  I tend to use the the Bass Patrol jigs in the 3/8 to1/2 oz size.  Trailers for them I tend to go with the Trigger X 3" Flappin Craw which also gets used on the 3/8 oz Dirty Jigs.  Also use the Net Bait Baby Paca Craws and Tiny Paca Craws.  There is enough trailer there for action but still stays compact and suttle for the conditions I tend to fish.

Football jigs are usually fished in sparse cover areas with rocks, bottom contact presentations, they are not a good heavy cover jig.

If you have plain jigs without a skirt, GYCB twin tail Hula grubs work good. If the jig has a skirt, twin tail/claw craw trailers work good. Berkley Chigger craws 3" or 4" are a good choice for a trailer to start with. The jig skirt should have 1 of the colors in the soft plastic trailer.

I'm pretty fond of a speed craw type trailer most of the time. If not that, a standard chunk. Maybe even a twin tail grub.

#1 would be a rage craw without a doubt!

I like baby d-bombs, and lately have been using the culprit creature craw when I want to slow the fall down, both work for me.
