What is your favorite way to rig a menace??? I like to rig it on a ned jighead and weedless.  Share and post pics!!

T rigged, jig trailer, or bladed jig trailer. 

I use it as a swim jig trailer. Its killer. Also I cut a v notch where the appendages meet the body. Gives it a little extra action.

I’ll have to try that modification.

T-rigged using a 3/0 hook and 3/8 oz bullet weight.

 

1/4 up to 3/4 on a pegged texas rig. 4/0 straight shank hook

1/2 up to 1 oz Carolina rig

Jig trailer

Bladed jig trailer

Cut in half and drop shot. 

Swing-jig head and slow roll it on the bottom.

Texas rigged with a 2/0 hook and 1/4 oz bullet weight.  Makes a great flipping bait.

 

Weightless on a 3/0 straight shank hook.  Just drag and swim it through spare pads.   The plastic life is awful but the hookup ratio is outstanding.  

Trailer - Siebert Sniper finesse jig

 

Swimbait - 1/4oz. VMC Mooneye jig

Dredge 1/4-3/8 Shaky head.  Flat out works. 

My go to jig trailer. 

As a swimbait, chatterbait trailer, texas rigged, jig trailer and now that I bought a few packs of baby menaces I will try and drop shot them.

Probably as a punch bait!  ?

 

Wobblehead

On a wide-gap slider head.

T-Rigged with a 1/8 bullet weight and a 3/0 hook.

My grandson did very well with the menace on a shakey head one hot summer morning last year. I like them Texas rigged

Nice! Can’t wait to try some of these ways out!

This is the Picasso head I’m trying out this year.  They make it with or without the weed guard.  This is the baby menace with 1/8 oz head and 1/0 hook.

I was just looking at those heads....yeah, that'll do nicely.

Looks like they were made for each other. I like the look of this
