Best ways to fish it (demo)

Swim Jig Trailer Shallow grass, slow roll
Texas Rig Pitching to cover
Ball Jig Head Dragging sand or rock
Split Shot Natural subtle glides
Link to custom color order form
Length
2.75" chub-style body with a split tail that adds movement without overpowering the profile.
Best for
Smallmouth, walleye, and finesse largemouth when fish want body but shy away from paddle tails.
Action
Split tail flutters on the fall and pulses subtly on slow retrieves or light current.
Where it shines
Rock, gravel, current seams, and pressured water where realistic movement matters.
Think in-between: this bait bridges the gap between a straight chub and a swimbait—enough action to get noticed, not enough to spook fish.

Top 3 ways we fish it

Let the tail breathe.

Ball Head Jig

Controlled swim and natural fall.
  • Thread straight to keep the tail balanced.
  • Slow roll just off bottom or swim through current seams.
  • Pause often—the tail does most of the work.

Drop Shot

Subtle action in place.
  • Nose-hook or lightly Texas-rig for durability.
  • Small shakes make the split tail flick.
  • Excellent when fish are suspended or neutral.

Finesse Jig Trailer

Adds movement without bulk.
  • Shorten slightly for compact jigs.
  • Split tail flares on hops and glides.
  • Works well when craw-style trailers stall out.
