I usually fish them on a 1/8-1/4 oz round jighead. I'll either crawl them on the bottom or swim them back. Vary the retrieve until you find something that works. I like the Zoom Fat Alberts.

Good bait that alot of people don't fish. I like to fish them on a jig head or a mushroom head,T-rig,C-rig,split shot,drop shot (small grub),mojo rig,as a swim jig trailer. :happy-127:

The only way I fish a grub is on a swim jig, I mean, why fish it any other way? :P

Swim it, jig it, hop it, drag it...

All of the above :D

Jig heads, t-rigged, c-rigged, all of these will work. Try 'em all and see what the fish will fall for.

In the hands of a skilled & knowledgeable angler with a good assortment of terminal tackle a grub is the closest thing to an all around lure you can find.

T-rigged weighted, t-rigged unweighted, jighead rigged ( and there´s a big bunch of jigheads styles from where to choose: conventional, shakey, underspin ) , C-rigged, live bait rigged, d-shot rigged, split shot rigged.

So I went to a pond in my apts and threw the grub around. I put it on a 2/0 offset hook with a bullet weight and was just swimming it. I think I had it upside down , but I corrected that. After that quick fix I started to catch fish. I didn't even think there were bass in there. So far, I LIKE IT! Maybe I should of been fishing them sooner...

The only "problem" with grubs is that their small size makes them numbers bait, but hey, there ain´t nothing wrong in ketchin a truckload of smaller fish.

Notice I didn´t say : "you can´t catch big fish on a grub" before somebody comes and says my pal X caught a 30 pounder on a grub, heck I´ve caught some nice fish with a 00 size Black Fury or a 3 inch grub but I don´t do it all the time and it´s not the kinda bait I would choose first to go after the big gals.

The thing is, grubs are very productive baits and can be fished in many ways.

Raul, I think what you are saying, I agree to a point! I have fished a 5 in. grub and I have caught alot of big bass over the years. If you put a grub where the big ones live they will eat it. I fish grubs in deep water in the summer so my bigger bass meter goes up. I am not saying your wrong so don't get upset with me. just my two cents worth.

I was fishing them today and caught alot. They were all in the 2-3lb range...I'm happy...just another reliable to-go bait in my opinion...Thanks everyone for the input!
