Brand0n Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 bought a pack the other day they look durable. was gonna throw them on light casting gear and texas rigged light. would this be a good smaller lure for this time of year? maybe try and put it on a shakey head. Quote

Try fishing it on a weighted hook! 1 Quote
Gangley Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Great lure texas rigged or on a weighted hook. Shakey Head is fine as well, but the lure really needs to be moved/dragged to get the vibrating affect from the split claws. Quote
Captain Obvious Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 Great bait!! put it on a 1/4 oz football head and sloooooooooooowly reel it in while maintaining bottom contact. One of my go to presentations. Quote
Brand0n Posted January 18, 2012 Author Posted January 18, 2012 i just put one on a weighted 2/0 or 3/0 hook i had forgotten i bought them on some 20lb power pro braid so do i drag this on the bottom like i would with a pegged weight on it? or how do i fish it? Quote
Al Wolbach Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 This is also a good bait to fish matted vegetation. The shape of the claws allows for vibration and slides through the weeds very well. And yes it should be a good cold water bait just fish very slow................Al Quote
bassin is addicting Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 great with a 2/0 or 3/0 weighted hook. swim it slow for this time of year. or bounce it...slow... one of my favorite baits. in summer i use the bigger size speed craw too. Quote
Five-Alive Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 one of my favorite baits and it can be fished alot of ways but my favorite is to Texas rig it. Ths is a fantastic bait to pitch to a bed too!! Quote
Super User Bassin_Fin@tic Posted January 18, 2012 Super User Posted January 18, 2012 Never hurts to c-rig it either. Just another option. Quote
Brand0n Posted January 18, 2012 Author Posted January 18, 2012 ahhh this would be a perfect bait to throw in a bed Quote
Nick Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 They are a great swim jig trailer as well. As the weather warms I crank them as fast as I can at times through shallow vegetation. BOOM! Quote
Kevinator1 Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 I pitch these all of the time. Great baits. Quote
A-Rob Posted January 18, 2012 Posted January 18, 2012 These are my go-to for pitching/flipping. I rig em on a straight shank hook with a tungsten bullet sinker and 65# braid on my heavy stick great action when dropping from the mat to the bottom. Usually fairly durable. Some great colors. Quote
quanjig Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 A great post spawn bait. Shallow cover, hop in place and hold on. Usually a bite on the first hop! Quote
NCbassmaster4Life Posted January 19, 2012 Posted January 19, 2012 Never hurts to c-rig it either. Just another option. Yes sir! Quote
Super User LgMouthGambler Posted January 20, 2012 Super User Posted January 20, 2012 I use them as my jig trailer, swin it or drag it, my fav. Quote
