What is your go-to Jackhammer/Cricket trailer?
would love to hear your thoughts in terms of clarity, temp, season, etc
Re: What is your go-to Jackhammer/Cricket trailer?
Zako, Strike King blade minnow, Big Bite Swimon work year round for me... and for more vibration, I go to a paddle tail like Kickin Zako or Gambler little EZ

Everyone says Zako...to me it was the worst and had zero action.

I fish super clear, grassy reservoirs. White Zako on Shad Jackhammer is my best producer. Find the grassline on the 360 and fish it just outside of the edges.

The Hog Farmer Spunk Shad is my go to vibrating jig trailer. I'll downsize to 3.5 sometimes as well. The Zako is too bulky and reduces the action too much in my opinion.

I just use a simple chunk from Zoom or the BPS brand. Thunder Cricket in bluegill with a green pumpkin chunk kills them in my part of the world.
