Who has used the Kalin Scrub as a jig trailer? Thoughts?

Don't care for this bait at all as a jig trailer, however this is probably the most productive chatterbait trailer i've ever used and i never see people using them.

Never having used a Kalins Scrub, I'd like to know the characteristics of this bait that you find detrimental as a jig trailer while advantageous for a chatterbait.

The kicking feet really don't have any action at slow speeds, even when swimming a jig sometimes its hard to get them to kick. But on a chatterbait, they do kick, and the action of the chatterbait goes through the limbs of the scrub giving it a very erratic action that seems to drive the fish mad!

I've had good luck with them on a swim jig after trimming a portion of the leg away to make them more flexible. Still like a Rage Craw or a LFT Creature better.

after trimming a portion of the leg away to make them more flexible.

I'm assuming you are saying the lower leg is too THICK to wiggle freely at slow speeds with light jig weights. I thin down the tails of my grubs with an emory board for that reason. Makes a good winter project.
