Like many of us we have so many baits and only so much time. So many don't get used or only used a certain way. The Rage Bug, I have only used it and seen it used as a pitching/flipping bait. Is anyone just fishing it as a T-rig? And how about as a Mojo/Finesse C-rig? And while your hear what are your Top 2 creature baits for T-rigs? As always, thanks guys!

I am trying to streamline things 

i usually go through a lot of Rage Tails

I use the rage bug on a T-rig, as a jig trailer, and on a swing head.  Great little bait.

It is definitely awesome for punching. There's a huge pond I fish that has the thick slop around the whole edge about 10 to 15 feet out. And the bass just hangout under this stuff. This is my favorite application for the rage bug. 

 

I also like to use it on the "jika" rig .. actually... It's my favorite bait on this rig so far . 

Try taking a Rage Bug for a ride on a Greenfish Tackle Creeper Head ~

Seems to rather popular with the local Smallmouth population.

Rage Bug in Blue Craw & the D-Bomb in El Diablo. T-rig pegged or on a swing head.

 

While on vacation at Kentucky Lake the past 2 years our most productive bait for ledge fishing has been a Rage Bug on a swing head.

I run it on a Rage rig and keep moving along the bottom.

It's my go to bait for swingheads and flipping. I've started using it as an alternative to lizards on my c-rigs, and I've got one tied up t-rigged for this weekend. I also like the space monkey too.

Buy the Rage bug in all sizes and colors.

it's the only reasonable approach....

I fish it Texas style and on a swing head. Zona just had his live show with KVD and he was tossing it on a jighead. It's a good jig trailer too.

Only craw type bait that I've caught fish on in CT. Granted I've only started craw fishing last year. I love it in Alabama craw or blackblue with a simple Texas rig. Throw it into trees and structure. It's not durable but I don't care if I catch em.

Got some magnum size and can't wait to try them this year. 

So I see quite a few of u T-rig it, but r u fishing it like a traditional T-rigged worm or just pitching it into cover and pulling it out? I fished it Thursday like a T-rigged worm, hopping it back to the boat and not a nibble. Yet the old baby brush hog was killin it as usual.

I T-rig it all of the time. Works great!

Swinging football head is my best rig for it. They make a great jig trailer too.

Try a 4/0 light belly weighted EWG hook. When the bass are feeding on bluegill this bait with a gliding fall is special.

I like it on the "jika" rig with the same retrieve he does on his swinging football head. Also pitching and punching. 

 

Awesome bait and durable too. I've had 7+ fish on one bait. 

I like it a lot trigged, jika and swing-head rigged.  But, like @Columbia Craw , a weighted EWG is my preferred method .....maybe 90% of the time.

I T-rig rage bugs all the time.  Probably my favorite soft plastic to T-rig.  I fish it in cover as well as just cast and hop it back. I get bit doing both.  I also fish it on a c-rig and swinging football head as others have mentioned.  Awesome soft plastic.
