Standalone Rigs:
How, where, and why it excels
Ball / Round Jig Head (1/16–1/4 oz)
When & where: Edges of grass, rip‑rap, points, and transitions; rivers and lakes.
How: Count‑down and slow‑roll; drag‑pause across rock; brief handle pops after contact.
Why this rig: Classic curl‑tail thump draws bass and walleye; garlic scent boosts hold time.
River Jig (1/16–1/8 oz) — trout/smallmouth
When & where: Seams, tailouts, and current breaks with bait present.
How: Cast quartering upstream; let it swing; short lifts to pulse the tail; feed slack to glide.
Why: Tight curl‑tail pulse triggers trout and river smallmouth without needing speed.
Underspin (1/8–1/4 oz) — clear to stained
When & where: Suspended bait over flats or brush; wind lanes; dawn/dusk.
How: Steady retrieve; one‑count stalls to re‑engage flash; rod‑tip down to track.
Why: Blade flash amplifies the grub’s tail pulse without extra size—multi‑species draw.
Swim Jig / Spinnerbait Trailer (1/4–3/8 oz)
When & where: Grass lanes, docks, wind‑blown banks.
How: Steady retrieve just ticking tops; kill for one count after contact.
Why: Adds lift and steady thump to stabilize the skirt—great in stain and wind.
Trim & Mods (quick hits)
- Tail tune: Taper tip slightly for cold water; leave full for max thump.
- Speed window: Riding up? go one head size heavier. Feeling dead? lighten one step.
- Scent/lock: Garlic base—refresh with gel; dot of super glue at keeper when threading.
Dial it in
- Glow / Low light: White Lightning (Glow), Ecto Glow (Glow) — charge with a flashlight; slow‑roll or swing with pauses.
- Clear (6–10+ ft): Smoke, Cosmic Crystal — natural/translucent; longer glides and slower speeds.
- Stained (2–6 ft): Mystique Mud, Red Devil — higher contrast; steady grind with brief stalls.
- Wind: Go one head size heavier or use spinnerbait trailer role for tracking.
- Cold front: Tighten movements; lighten head for more hang time; avoid big sweeps.

Q&A
Q: Why pick a 3" grub over a paddletail or twin‑tail?
A: It gives lift and steady tail thump at slow speeds, stays clean in current, and doubles as a compact trailer when you need subtle flash—not bulk.
