Paca Craw

[jrk]

I tried this the other day and caught my fall best with it.  Never fished this prior...got me interested.  I'm interested to hear how you guys rig these.  If you fish it and rig it a specific way, I'd love to hear the specifics such as hook type, weight pegged or not, etc.

Thanks for the time,

Randy

I rig mine with a 1/4 jig, I like the screw type bait holder, in with green pumpkin craw. I all so use the paca chunk with a strike king jig. I used on today but no luck...Tried everthing else too...nada.

It's a great bait! I t-rig it with a small (1/8 oz) bullet weight on 12# flouro.

X2, sometimes when It's warmer I'll even rig it texas style weightless and buzz it along top, and if a fish rises for it and misses, I just stop reeling and let it fall. This normally gets them to hit it.

x2... ive also used it with success on an 1/8oz shakey head jig

Another T-rig vote here. A small (1/8-3/16) tungsten bullet weight does the job very well. This year I am going to try some Force Beads for this specific presentation.

I have a New Zillion rod on the way, and I have a feeling it's going to see some Paca Craw action.

Also, the Baby size is my fav.

I like to use them on a Spot Remover shakey head, a regular Texas-rig, and use them as a jig trailer.

Couple of hooks;2/0,3/0 flip-pin and tex rig.Take a sizmic toad hook as well for flip-pin, shove a over sized glass rattle in it.And some times if I want a bigger profile I rip the paca in half for the trailer on my jig.I will even take the chunk and baby for shaky and drop shot.

Tx rig with a 3/4 oz parasite weight for punching. About to try it with those gambler ko hangover skirts.

I use it on a shaky head type jig head, so it "stands up". Baby paca with an 1/8oz that is. Pumpkin spice color or alabama craw.

This bait has been a killer for me. My favorite is the baby craw T rigged with the lightest weight I can use. But I also use them on a shakey head, or a C rig, or  as a jig trailer even on a swim jig. Does not seem to be a wrong way to fish them. The big craw is great for flipping. The tiny craw will work on a drop shot rig. Just fish them, you won't be sorry.

Thanks for all the replies.  I saw something called the owner phantom tube hook...I might give this a try...interesting!  I wish I had been throwin this bait earlier this season, the thing is phenominal!
