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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

 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....
