Spunkshad

[snowplow]

Hey guys, I just picked up my first spunkshad and I'm really impressed. I know these things for ChatterBait trailers. Is there any other way you fish them?

[BayouSlide]

Chatterbait and spinnerbait trailers. No reason they wouldn't make a great swim jig trailer as well. 👍

They work great anyway you could possibly rig a plastic.

 

As with any plastic they reward experimentation and you may have to play around a bit to find a way that you can fish them that is sneaky / effective.

 

Nose, hooked and weightless they would dance really nicely.  They make great jig trailers on any type of jig you can imagine. I'm sure that if you threw it on the back of a t rig with an appropriate Hook you could catch a lot of fish flipping it. Don't see why it wouldn't work really well on a Carolina rig or a drop shot. 

 

Sky's the limit with little Shad shaped things you know?  😉

Buzzbait trailer is my latest not mentioned above.

I also use it as a fluke, weightless and free rig, and jighead minnow both mid column and bottom contact and they get bit.  Shakeyhead and jig trailer seem like no brainers

Use them on a jig head for mid-strolling

Chatter bait or buzz bait trailer works great.

I'm not much on using a trailer on a spinnerbait but I do like them on a chatterbait

I love them. I was in Chattanooga a month or so ago and ran by hog farmer.  Let’s just say, I have more than my wallet wanted at the time…

Keitech model 3 swim jig trailer. Completely different action from a paddle tail and I find I can go super weedless and pitch it into some wood and get solid bites a more compact pitching jig won’t entice.

I have a few bags of the Missile Baits version and I use them for spinnerbaits, chatterbaits, and drop shots.

jig head minnow and no you dont have to have ffs to catch fish that way. and the smaller one works well for me on a drop shot.

Whatever you do - do not put the small spunk shad on a weedless ned head from @Siebert Outdoors and reel and shake it just below the surface around pieces of cover.  😜😜😜 Definitely do not do that - it's not fun!  🎣🎣🎣😂😂😂

I also rig with Core Tackle Hover Rig or Ultimate Swimbait head.
