What is Your Favorite Jig Trailer? 2025
gotarheelz14 reply :
As far as Jigs and Pigs go, what is your favorite thing to add to the back of a jig for a trailer?
So far, I haven't really tried many as I have just started out. I have bought a couple of Strike King crawdads though so I will be giving these a try. I am going to try pitching them to branches, trees, rocks, etc.
What is your favorite and why?
BassThumb reply :
It depends on the season, water temp, and the fishes mood:
- Chigger Craw, V&M Mud Bug, Paca Chunk, Paca Craw for the most action.
- Zoom Super Chunks and Smallie Beavers for some action.
- Zoom Big Salty Chunk, small chunks or small pork frogs for the least action.
For the most part, I thread them onto the hook for a smaller profile and rig them as a chunk for a larger profile.

Right now, a toss up between a Ragetail Craw, and a sweetbeaver 4:20. Both have worked well..

Ragetail Lobster
Shane J reply :
Rage Tail Craw or Baby Craw, depending on the size I'm going for, but always have Rage pincers flappin' around on my jigs.
Raul reply :
For hunting the big uns: Brush Hog
For everyday fishing, well I don 't have a favorite, somteimes I use a grub, other times a straight tail worm, others a craw.

Baby Brush hog works for me
bigfruits reply :
if youre just starting out, use small jigs with small (3") trailers. you will catch fish of all sizes and build confidence fast. i usually trim the skirt to the hook bend and cut the guard down some.
id try:
1/4oz bitsy bug (cheap and works great)
5/16oz eakins
3" yum craw papi
netbait tiny paca craw
rage baby craw (havent tried this yet)
zoom tiny chunk (i dont trim skirt for these)
basspimple reply :
dark water: rage craws
finesse: 4in. tiki monkey. i dont know what it is but those little legs get a lot of attention!
brushhoggin reply :
depends on the rate of fall and action i'm looking for. paca chunk, zoom super chunk and the v&m mudbug for a slower fall. and zoom critter craw or larew craw for a faster fall and fishing deeper. for swim jigs i have great success with a money craw. for finesse jigs i've done well using the conquistador craw.

chigger craw
wisconsin heat reply :
berkely powerbait chunky trailer, but im going to try gulp punchcraws, they have them on sale and they look like theyll work...
TommyBass reply :
-Netbait
-Chigger craws
-Zoom super chunks
-Uncle Josh Pork
-and sometimes Rage: I like the Rage action, but its cost and durability make it a rare use for me. They lose pinchers easier than any other trailer around and cost more than almost every other brand.
Primus reply :
I use the following...
Poor Boys Craw Daddy- This is what I use when I want a faster fall and gives the fish a realistic craw look
Netbait Paca Chunk- Great action
Yamamoto 5" Single Tail Grub- Very effective trailer for swim jigs
3" Yum Craw Papi- my favorite for finnesse jigs
Shad_Master reply :
There have been so many that I have used and tend to like 'em all at one time or another. Right now my two favorites are Chigger Craw (black/blue or green pumpkin) and Zoom Ultravibe Speed Craw (green pumpkin blue flash).
