zackdd99 reply :
Someone gave me a brushhog one day we were fishing and i didnt use it. I went out to one of my regular fishing ponds and 3rd cast with texas rigged brush hog i caught a 6-7 lb bass. After that i feel there better then the babies but i know there popular.whats your preference between the two?
Mccallister25 reply :
I prefer the baby brush hogs. Iv thrown them on a skirtless 3/8 oz jig and caught fish on it. The regular sized hog might not catch as many fish as the slightly smaller version, but they would most likely all be quality fish. A 6-7# bass is a pretty good one IMO. If it aint broke, dont fix it.

I prefer the baby brush hog for T rigging and the full size for C rigging. If I'm after a big bite I'll fish the full size on a T rig though.

Exactly what I was about to post...

Caught more fish with baby brush hog, especially on pressured water. I like regular hog in deeper water or late afternoon/evening. Both C-rigged. Caught the fish in my avatar on green pumpkin baby hog c-rigged.

How do you fish the c-rigged hogs guys?... just drag it or poppin it?

Drag slow to the side until you find brush. Stop and shake a little then slowly hop/drag over brush.
eyedabassman reply :
You can fish a Brush Hog ANYWHERE! Deep water skinny water pads,slop ect. I like the Brush Hog and i catch bass of many size's. But I like the Baby in the spring or after a front.. I fish them on a C-rig,T-rig, skirtless jig, as a jig trailer,split shot rig,mojo rig. And color can be a factor!!!!!!!

Slow sideways drag 1-3 feet, pause, repeat. Remember, the hookset is a sideways sweep as well.

Yeah Buddy!
As I posted on another thread my pb was on the standard size brush hog.
It's one of my top 5 plastics.
T rig, C rig, or Fla rig in sparse cover, doesn't matter. The only time I wont throw it is flippin into heavy cover for obvious reasons. The only time Ive had any success with the baby is when the water turns cold (by Fla standards) but even then I've had success just cutting back or cutting off entirely the middle tail of the standard size.

Jig and Brush Hog as trailer, my number one big bass bait.
Bankbeater reply :
I like brush hogs in open water with a c-rig. I use baby brush hogs in cover with a t-rig.
Primus reply :
My experience is that the Baby is better for numbers but the full size is great for big fish .

Fish the baby during the day and larger one at nite for bigger target
kfelton0002 reply :
I love the baby brush hogs in the black with red flake. For some reason the bass where I fish burn them up. They won't touch a full sized brush hog.
Melvin Savage reply :
I love the big brush hog catch nice size bass off it
Log Catcher reply :
I usually use the Baby Brush Hog on a T rig.Have caught a lot of fish on it. About the only time I use a Brush Hog is in murkier water. Have not caught that many on it. Mine are always T rigged. I haven't used a C rig in years.
yosef reply :
Baby brush hog in sprayed grass or baby bass is my favorite soft plastic for my lake I use them as Texas rig and on jigs ....I’m fishing very clear water about 10+ feet visibility on sunny days
Mbirdsley reply :
Is a Christy critter considered a brush hog? I’ve had very good success on them especially the black and blue flake, and green pumpkin colors. I’ve only tried t- rigging them so far.
HeyCoach reply :
I’ve caught a few on black baby brush hogs skipping them under docks. I have a bag of green pumpkin magic babies but haven’t been out since I picked them up.
riverat reply :
I use the Brush Hog during the summer and winter as a backup to a jig. I'll use the Baby Brush Hog year round.
ItsHardwick reply :
Caught my pb on a sprayed grass baby brush hog so I’m a bit partial.
bowhunter63 reply :
Have had more luck on the baby brush hog.
Gorris317 reply :
I fished with a brush hog today and think I would like the baby brush hogs better. The full size one seems a little too large, was looking for something similar to a lizard in profile for pitching and flipping.
jwwoodjr reply :
I use both depending on the situation. The baby one gets through cover better when flipping. The full size is good for Carolina rigs. I also like the baby when flipping behind someone else.
