I just got a pack today in falcon lake craw. I’ve had some good success with a rage bug as a jig trailer. I figured I’d try some of these. I see a lot about them. And my other craws are mostly chunk style trailers. Are you Texas rigging them or using them as a jig trailer? 

I almost always have one on a jig. I also use them on a "Pivot Head", "Swivel Head" ball jig. 

Texas rig and Jika rig. If I'm out of Rage Chunks, I bite two sections off for a jig trailer. 

Yes 

Jig trailer, Trig and Crig are how I use them.

I mostly use the Rage bug for T-rig and either the craw or bug for jigs. Like @J Francho I’ll bit a couple sections off for jigs.

Same

Mostly for T rig and always for punching and sight fishing beds.

Yup jig trailer and t-rigs. 

Jig trailer and texas rig. It is definitely a top jig trailer. 

I’ve pretty much completely replaced Rage Craws in my rotation but they work as a jig trailer, T-rigged, or C-rigged.

T rigged , Wobble head or Rage Rigged. Mainly the wobble head when it’s hot 

What is rage rigged?

With what?

@Joedodge for T-rigging I will usually opt for a Rage Bug or Menace instead and for jig trailers I’m almost always using a NetBait Paca Chunk.

I went the other way and replaced chunks. A craw is a chunk with a longer body.  No sense carrying both around.  When my supply of chunks is gone I won't replace them.   The craw can be used for other things but a chunk is a one hit wonder.

I agree with this. And I have a decent chunk collection hahaha. But mostly for cold water early spring. That said the paca chunk just never did it for me lol

Rage jambalaya and Rage etouffee!

Rage rigged is weedless rigged using a weighted swim bait style hook. As far as I remember the term "rage rigged" was coined by a member here named Matt (I believe) a long time ago.

How well does that come through moderate to thicker grass compared to a texas rig?  I have to imagine it is worse, but is it fishable?

I never really fished it much so I'm not real sure. If I remember correctly the idea was to use just enough weight to get the legs/flappers working. I think it would work alright but it would most likely come over any thicker vegetation as opposed to through it. It would probably be similar to fishing a toad and letting it drop down into any open pockets. You certainly wouldn't be punching with it. Lol.
