IS THERE A GOOD JIG THAT DOES BETTER THAN OTHERS FOR CRAPPIE, BUBBLE BELLY, ETC.

I think this should be posted in the other fish species section, also I am not sure what you are asking, but I like shad darts or roadrunners for crappies.

I always put a little rooster tail on my son's  fishing rod and he catches fish or a Matzuo nnano minnow.

roadrunner !!!

i just like a white or pink 1/16 oz jig head with a tube body....then a waxie run up under the skirt, or a gulp waxie in the same manner.  

roadrunner !!!

would a soft plastic trailer (twin-tail grub, etc) be needed with that jig, or is it ready to throw "as is"?

You can fish it bare but a trailer never hurts

I buy Cabelas cheap 1/32, 1/16, and 1/8 oz ball head jigs for crappie fishing and I use them with Southern Pro Triple Tip grubs.  My two favorite colors are white body /chartreuse tail and black body/chartreuse tail for clear to stained and muddy water respectively.  I've been using these for a few years now and they are the most consistent crappie bait I've ever used.  

I did extremely well last season with a roadrunner with the swimming tail grub, also a crappie tube filled with Berkley's crappie nibbles, and Berkley Gulp & Alive 2 1/2 - 3" (Smelt) minnows.

I could not believe I caught a 2lber last weekend trolling w/ an Rapalla deep diverin Lake Wylie. Thing fought great.  Never seen one that big before.

The best luck I have is with southern pro lil hustler tubes. All colors need to be on your boat because you never know what color will work day to day.

hey calcutta, thanks for tube help, those work great on southern bass.
