Re: Favorite finesse jig trailers
When you can get them.....Zoom Skinny Chunk
Re: Favorite finesse jig trailers
These are some of the best. I like leaving them long though, even though it doesn't quite look right it works well. I have also used the 3.5" Biffle Bug with decent success.Pin wrote:SK rage baby menace grub with body trimmed up according to the shank of your jig hook. Zoom tiny chunks, little critter craw.
Re: Favorite finesse jig trailers
For very small jigs, a Cross Tail Shad makes an interesting trailer. I did it the first time out of desperation, but it has a nice wiggle when hopped and moves in almost any current.

I usr a tiny paca in warmer water or a smallie beaver in colder water

Re: Favorite finesse jig trailers
I recently discovered the Zoom Z Craw Jr. They are very slim and have good claws. I trim them down a little and use them on little 3/16 oz finesse jigs.

Re: Favorite finesse jig trailers
I just picked up one of those tiny keitech guard spin jigs in 1/8oz. Thing is really tiny, not sure what to put on the back of it. Even TRD Craw is too big (it's bigger than the jig itself). Maybe the last 2" of a straight tail worm

Does the Elaztech plastic react with jig skirts like it does other plastic baits?pharmboy2010 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 03, 2018 10:34 amStrike King 3X ElazTech Denny Brauer Bitsy Chunk. Never really cared for the ElazTech stuff, except for jig trailers. Last forever and highly buoyant.

Re: Favorite finesse jig trailers
I've never had it react with standard silicone skirt material. I've even had the same trailer on a jig for an entire week fishing up in Minnesota on vacation. I've never used it with rubber skirting material.Warhawk wrote: ↑Sun Jun 09, 2019 2:11 pmDoes the Elaztech plastic react with jig skirts like it does other plastic baits?pharmboy2010 wrote: ↑Sat Mar 03, 2018 10:34 amStrike King 3X ElazTech Denny Brauer Bitsy Chunk.

Re: Favorite finesse jig trailers
That’s what I was hoping. I had avoided using Elaztech baits with jigs for fear of them melting together.pharmboy2010 wrote: ↑Sun Jun 09, 2019 2:23 pmI've never had it react with standard silicone skirt material.
