Rick, any soft plastic will work as a trailer, I use anywhere from a grub all the way up to a brush hog.

With no shad, and a 50% rock bottom, craws are a major forage here.

any craw trailer works, I'm not picky.  I do like the strike king 3x craw trailer only because they never rip, but the claws stick together.  Can't go wrong with  yum trailer.  lately I have been using the craws from ***, they all work, if anything, experiment with different SIZE trailers and see what's good for your lake.  Some folks like using twin tail grubs, Brush hawgs, beavers, etc.  mix it up and find something you throw with the highest confidence and that will usually be the one that works best.

Try pork trailers too.

Hey now Russ no reason to hate on the Uncle Josh #11 pork trailer they make great trailers for jigs. A few hints and tips for jig fishing with pork. Always keep the trailer wet, if your not using the rod let the jig just barely sit in the water to keep it wet. A dried up piece of pork isnt fun to fish with or getting off the hook. Fatty side down, you want to keep the soft fatty side of the pork facing down (the legs are made out of a tougher "skin" material that side face up). One last thing to prevent setting the hook into your own pork frog legs. Here is a tip, take a small piece of worm/senko approx 1/2 to 1in long and run the hook through the length of it. Then slide the pork trailer on(be sure to use the manufacturers precut whole) this will push he pork trailer back on the bend of the hook. Hope that helps....
