Goby Baits & Riggin?

[eyedabassman]

I want to start to fish some goby baits this year. I did buy a pack of the Strike King Goby baits. They are very thick at the head. So my question is how do you guys fish them? What kind of heads? ect.

shaky head or drop shot works the best for me.  A c rig might be a good way also.

dont the strike king ones take a regular tube head jig???

I use Goby's in rivers, and Lake Erie for Smallies, and Walleye. I put them on a 1/8 oz. gold with eye, or chartreuse jighead.

for soft plastics to be fished off the bottom , i would use these , Owner ultraheads .

I plan on using the Goby Sled this year when fishing lake Eire.

I tried those goby sleds last year, for some reason they hang up way more than a regular tube head, and the cost too much to be losing 1/2 a dozen or more a day on Erie. A regular tube head works just fine, or on a drop shot rig.

Thanks for the warning. I'll have to pick the spots I use them carefully.

I took the bag of Strike King Goby's that I have and I was tinkering with them after your input. And they do have a spot for a tube head jig and it works pretty good. But with that fat head I don't see how it could be hooked on a c-rig or a drop shot? :'( :-/ :-? :D What brand of goby baits do you fish?

For dragging on the bottom I use the SK Goby with a tube head, for drop shotting I use the Zoom Fluke tail goby. When I am drop shotting worms or other small baits I usually use a Gamakatsu #1 drop shot hook, buit since these goby's have bigger heads I bump up to a 1/0 DS hook, if I am in weeds I use a 2/0 EWG work hook on the ds, and rig the bait weedless.

I've used culprits and handpours.
