Swim Jig 2025


fishing user avatarGhostshad reply : 

Which of the Rage product line makes the best swim jig trailer ?


fishing user avatardoyle8218 reply : 

I can't speak for the BEST but the only Rage baits I use on swim jigs are:

 

Strike King Rage Tail Structure Bug
Strike King Rage Twin Tail Menace Grub
Strike King Rage Tail Grub


fishing user avatariabass8 reply : 

Menace


fishing user avatarMatthew2000 reply : 

The Menace or Bug


fishing user avatardeep reply : 

I do *not* like a grub or craw for a swim jig trailer. Prefer a bigger paddletail (I'm partial to skinny dippers, but others should work fine) on a small (1/4 oz usually) northern style swim jig. The idea is for the tail to walk the dog. You can just cast and wind it back without putting any rod action, and catch bass of all sizes. Try it.

Yep!


fishing user avatarArv reply : 

I actually like the grub most


fishing user avatarkickerfish1 reply : 

Either the menace or standard curly tail grub. The most underated is the eeliminator. Big O mentioned it a few years ago and and the action is pretty awesome.


fishing user avataratcoha reply : 

I like the structure bug and the grub, but I usually start out with a paddletail swim bait on the swimjig, if that's not working I will switch to the other.


fishing user avatarA KGB Operative reply : 

The caffine shad? I'm so surprised that that answer wasn't the first. I've never used grubs on swimjigs. Always paddletails and possibly craws

Whoops not a rage tail series. Still highly recommend though.


fishing user avatarbenthinkin reply : 

been swimming my flippin jig. 3/8 oz black and blue with a D bomb trailer. just cast and pop and jerk back to the boat. had a 4 and a six yesterday doin that.


fishing user avatartrupp30 reply : 

I have been using a menace grub with good results.


fishing user avatardam0007 reply : 

Swim jigs I usually use a paddle tail. 3.8" Fat Keitech. Never get bit swimming with any other trailer. Pitching and getting hit on the fall or hopping it is usually use the rage chunk or craw...


fishing user avatarBluebasser86 reply : 

The Rage Craw is my favorite, followed by the Menace.


fishing user avatargobig reply : 

One of the things I will do is rig a beaver style bait sideways. Gives a big profile like a bluegill. 


fishing user avatariceintheveins reply : 

Menace or chunk.


fishing user avatarbuzzed bait reply : 

the cut-r worm works pretty well for me, just cut it about in half or so....

i got some a while back on a crazy deal like $1.75 a pack or something and have been using them as swim jig trailers with some success

fishing user avatardanno054 reply : 

For me the rage craw just looks like everything. I'll go menace if I was a different tail profile.
