spider grubs/jigs- how do you fish them?

Featured Replies

I wanna hear your guys' presentations with this bait.  I love'm but am always open for some new Ideas.  I like to slow crawl'em on the bottom or just deadstick'em in open water like 10-30ft water is usually clear.  What do you guys do?

I pretty much fish them the same as you on 1/2 oz jig heads.  I am thinking about using a heavier jig for deeper water, but I'm not sure if I should.  When you are fishing them deep, what size jig do you use?

I fish them like a tube with short, shallow hops. In relatively open water I sometimes fish them on a 1/8 -1/4 oz jig head. Most of the time I fish them weightless on a #3 Gamakatsu Offset Worm Hook, weedless with a 1/8 oz weight, unpegged.

I fish them mainly on 1/4oz weedless football jig heads in 0-10ft of water, just like a jig a lil shaking here a pop or two there. In deeper water or on windy days I go to a 3/8oz weedless football jig head or if the situations dictate I will move upto to a 1/2oz weedless football jig head. I dont go to heavy for allot of strikes I get are coming on the fall, where a heavier jig just might fall to fast. I fish them all on a Diawa TDX left hand reel on a All Star BCM 6' 6" Medium Rod with 15lb Pline CXX Strong or Berkely Vanish Fluorocarbon 15lb.
