Jake P Posted September 15, 2012 Posted September 15, 2012 Chunks can be rigged anyway that you want really. You can run it up the hook like in Matstone7's picture or you can just poke it through the fat part of the chunk and let it sit at the bend of the hook for a larger presentation. I hardly ever use chunks but thats just my preference. Experiment both ways! Quote
pussiwillow Posted September 16, 2012 Posted September 16, 2012 anyone try zoom speed craws for trailers? i think next time im out im going to give it a shot.. Quote
Will Wetline Posted September 16, 2012 Posted September 16, 2012 Years and years ago (before all the new-fangled stuff came to market), us oldtimers (when we were young) bought jars of white pork rind that we used as trailers. Wouldn't be surprised if pork rind still would work. Yup. The Uncle Josh product - which is still available - was the "pig" on the hook of the jig. The jig used 4 - 5 decades ago was very likely skirted with bucktail, not rubber or silicone. Bass fishing presentations have changed but the bass's behavior hasn't; I'm sure the good ol' jig and pig is as effective now as ever. Quote

Experiment both ways! thanx, thats what i have been doing... i havent experimented much with jigs as i am just learning how to fish plastic worms, and someone told me to first learn how to worm fish and then begin using jigs.... i have been catching some fish with worms so i think my next time out ill give jigs a try...

greatone1210 Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 Here you go..... What jig brand is this?? Quote
hookset on 3 Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 What jig brand is this?? Strike King Denny Brauer- Premier Pro Model Jig. The rattle chamber has a small spike built into the bottom inside area to help hold trailers in place. These are definitely professional grade, as the name implies. Quote
Highhawk1948 Posted September 21, 2012 Posted September 21, 2012 Just bought some Jigs today to start fishing them again. Purchased some Zoom Chunks to use as trailers. Also have Culprit Worms that will match too. Quote
merc1997 Posted September 21, 2012 Posted September 21, 2012 Either Rage tail chunk, Grub, baby rage craw or the netbait paca Chunk. The rage tail action is insane and out fishes every other trailer i use. My only issue with them is the claws come off easy. that is called marketing or built in obsolesence.bo Quote
