papajoe222 Posted October 13, 2017 Posted October 13, 2017 This is more of an information post than a question. An observation based on experience. A recent thread about choice of color for a jig trailer got me to thinking about how and why I choose a particular trailer. Without a doubt, how it affects the fall rate is my number one concern, but a close second is the size of the overall package, for lack of a better word. I'm not a big fan of finesse fishing, but I do downsize my offerings under tough conditions and as I always have a jig at the ready, downsizing the trailer and many times trimming the skirt will allow me to continue using a presentation that I have the utmost confidence in. That 3/8oz. will still produce good bites under tough conditions, with the right trailer. Quote
Super User fishballer06 Posted October 13, 2017 Super User Posted October 13, 2017 Living up north, I will change the type of trailer depending upon the water temperature. When the water temperature drops below 60*, I like a trailer with less action like a standard chunk or a beaver style bait. Once the water is warmer, I'll use something that kicks a little more, like a Rage craw, Paca Craw, etc. 1 Quote
