tbirds00 Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 Double tail grub on a all terrain tackle jig Quote
BassinMD Posted June 14, 2012 Author Posted June 14, 2012 Haha just started using em a few days ago and I've had fair success so far got 4 of the kvd swim jigs but just using Berkley 3 inch grubs from years ago lol, gonna have to get some rage tails I sounds like you guys all seem to love them. And where can I get all terrain ? Tackle warehouse ? Quote
Super User smalljaw67 Posted June 14, 2012 Super User Posted June 14, 2012 I make my own swim jig and I like the rage craw as a trailer or a Lunker City swim fish. Quote
Super User Shane J Posted June 14, 2012 Super User Posted June 14, 2012 It's always, ALWAYS, a Rage Tail Baby Craw or Rage Tail 4" Grub on my swim jigs (and I catch an insane amount of fish on 'em!). Quote
backwater4 Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 3" hand poured swim bait (paddle tail) on a custom 5/16 oz. grass jig. Jig is the actual color, swimbait trailer is not. I match this jig with a pearl black flake trailer. 1 Quote
logan9209 Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Since it was brought up, Seeing the swimming action of the Smokin' Rooster why does it not seem to be a good trailer for a swim jig? I mean, the swim jig is basically the same as a spinnerbait without the spinner arm and blades. In other words, you are swimming it like a fish (for the most part). It would seem to me that the swimming arms and tail of the Smokin' Rooster would make it a great trailer. Just curious. I got p/o at the june bug Rooster and stuck one on everything I could find: chatterbait, swim jig, pitching/flipping jig, skirtless football jig (I thought it was a shaky head jig). Haven't tried them out yet. Except the chatterbait and man does it look good in the water. No hits though. Quote

Greed Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Big Hammer paddletails get my vote, 4" preferably. The line of swimjigs that Pepper Jigs have are what I use. Quote
BassinMD Posted June 15, 2012 Author Posted June 15, 2012 Thanks to everyone for the replys!!! I got a mess o swim jogs otw from all terrain and went and got a few more of the kvd models and rage tail grubs to match them all I will keep you guys posted on what I'm having luck with. Thanks again everyone! Quote
nvhsaccel Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Dont forget the buckeye flat top! It's not just a finesse jig, it's caught me some huge fish while swimming it with a summer craw baby rage tail on the back. Quote
soopd Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Don't mean to hijack the thread, but what swim jig has a good heavy hook? I have tried a few and the hook bends too easy. I use braid because I am fishing a lot grass. Quote
nvhsaccel Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 The strike king hack attack jig has a very stout hook, as well as the dirty jigs California swim jig Quote
hatrix Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 Big Hammer paddletails get my vote, 4" preferably. The line of swimjigs that Pepper Jigs have are what I use. x2 On the big hammers thats my #1. I also like ripple shads with the head cut off and those I don't have to order. I also don't like any of the flat swim jigs I have tried personally. I perfer regular jigs and really like grass masters or the hack attack (I think) and ill throw any where from 1/4-1/2oz depending on depth and speed. Quote
Super User Deleted account Posted June 19, 2012 Super User Posted June 19, 2012 Its not a swim jig per se, but I find myself swimming 3/16 booyah boo jig with a fat albert grub a lot Quote
