codogs Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 I generally fish them texas rigged (1/8 to 1/4 oz bullet weight). I also like to carolina rig them too. Quote
Guest bigtex Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 How do you fish a baby brush hog? Thanks Just like you would any other soft plastic bait. T-rig, C-rig, drop shot, and weightless. Quote
ga_hawghauler Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 I fish these carolina or texas rigged. Also I take a tear a small part off the front of the brush hog and I use the rest of the brush hog for a trailer on a jig. I will tear off a small peice so that i dont have to much hanging off the back of the jig. You can use the whole thing if you want to. Quote
Guest avid Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 they are very popluar by me for carolina riggin. Quote
jomatty Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 i like to either c-rig em or as to pitch em t-rigged. matty Quote
what Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 witch way is the right way to c rig bucease all i do is put to or three split shot 10 inches ahead of the bait is this right Quote
BigString Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 I have had good luck texas rigged with whatever weight necessary, but I dip the lower half into Spike-It chartreuse garlic dip-n-glo. Bass really seem to like it. I usually use watermelon colors of some sort. Matt Quote
IneedAnewScreenName9886691 Posted June 6, 2006 Posted June 6, 2006 I like it T-Rigged for pitching and flipping and the baby brush hogs are great for C-riggn What: the most popular C-rig goes something like this (from the rod side down) - brass weight, glass bead, ticker (optional), swivel, leader, bait. Drag it across the bottom pausing for strikes like fishing texas. I am sure you can type in carolina rig in the search area and find a TON of info about it on this site. Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted June 6, 2006 Super User Posted June 6, 2006 I like throwing them into heavy cover on a texas rig. They are good carolina rig baits too. Another good way is just to put a light split shot on them and fish them like a slow senko. They have a really different action when twitched. Quote
bubbler Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 They are the most versitile bait possible. use them any way that catches fish like t-rig/c-rig/spider jig traliors(finess jig) Quote
justfishin Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 I like to throw them on a 2/o EWG hook and use a 1/8 oz bullet sinker around those areas where there are just patches of grass on 12# test. My favorite colors for them are green pumpkin, PB&J and June bug. Quote
Super User Gatorbassman Posted January 27, 2007 Super User Posted January 27, 2007 Tie your line to that little ring it it's nose and toss him in the water. Quote
SneakySnook Posted January 27, 2007 Posted January 27, 2007 It can be fished many ways but my favorite way is a owner sled head in a 1/8oz. or 1/4oz. Quote
hookem12_0 Posted January 28, 2007 Posted January 28, 2007 You can fish a baby brush hog several ways. It is my all time favorite soft plastic. In the spring I almost always start a day of fishing with a carolina rigged baby brush hog. This is a good way to cover alot of water quickly. Once I move into the summer months I will continue to carolina rig but will usually start with a Texas rigged bbh. Another fun way to fish them that not many people do is to rig them on a shaky head. It you need any other tips on bbh's just email me. Quote
Ky_Lake_Dude Posted January 28, 2007 Posted January 28, 2007 Texas rig with a smaller weight like an 1/8oz with a 2/0 wide gap worm hook Quote
skillet Posted January 29, 2007 Posted January 29, 2007 I've only been using them for a little over a year, used jigs mostly. T rigged with 1/8 to 1/4 weight. They are the best thing since they started slicing bread ! Tried the regular Brush Hog lately and it seemed to underline the saying of "big bait big fish", big bait for me anyway relative term I guess. It seemed that I didn't get as many bites from smaller fish. They are 2 of my favorites!! PS, I throw them in the worst places I can find.... As Ever, Skillet Quote
