Tristan Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 I'm fairly new to fishing and have never used jugs before I was wondering if they work just as well without a soft plastic or they work better with a soft plastic. Thanks for any replies! Quote
Super User gardnerjigman Posted October 18, 2014 Super User Posted October 18, 2014 I always use a trailer. Better presentation and more realistic movements, fall rates etc. You can catch fish without a trailer though too... Will always find fish that will eat whatever hits them on the nose. Quote
wisconsin heat Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 I prefer to have a small plastic chunk threaded on mine. Quote

Thanks for any replies!Define jug?From the title you mean jig, there dozens of jigs from plain lead head, bass and crappie jig with a skirt of some type of material, need a better discription.

Super User Catch and Grease Posted October 18, 2014 Super User Posted October 18, 2014 Are you talking about skirted jigs? Quote

ABW Posted October 18, 2014 Posted October 18, 2014 Fairly new to fishing with a PB of 9-10 lbs??? Wow. Always use a plastic trailer with bass jigs. You can still catch fish with out them though, but I have more confidence in the bait with one on. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted October 19, 2014 Global Moderator Posted October 19, 2014 I always fish them with a trailer. They'll work without one, but I have no confidence in a jig without a trailer. Quote
