This will be my first year using it do you use a lure wrap or remove it and put it back in the jar?

I always remove it and return it to jar.

Is there any trick to this or is it really simple lll I’ve thought I read on here it’s tricky

I'm using Fat cow jig strips and haven't had any issues removing them. 

Uncle Josh was more challenging but you can take a utility knife and slice it for easy removal. 

What we used years ago were called pig savers but they rusted our jigs, been removing them ever since. 

I take off one of my wet socks and shove right on there like ? in a blanket ?

There are a few tricks to using pork jig trailers.

The pork needs to be kept wet so when not using it during the days outing either leave in the water or use a wet lure wrap.

Port rind jig trailers are nose hooked about 3/16” back from the front end. You can punch a hole in the nose with an ice pick or knife tips about 1/8” dia or long.

To remove you need to prevent the hook barb from snagging the pork rind when removing. Face the hook barb away from the rind skin and pull the rind so the opposite side of the bard opens the hole and slide off.

A trick I use is adding a 3/4” length of soft plastic worm threaded onto the jig hook shank. The worm piece prevents the pork  trailer from sliding forward and getting the hook point stuck into it when a bass engulf the jig.

Hold it parallel to the hook, with a very slight gap between the pork and the barb and pull hard, rotate 180 degrees while maintaining pressure, and push it out while maintaining the same plane, sounds complicated, but it's actually really simple.
