Rage craw, rage grub, or zoom chunk depending on water temp.

Rage Craw if you need a larger profile. Net Bait Paca Chunk is a great trailer and very reasonably priced.

Berkley Chigger Craw

For the pumpkin/green flake color, go with this. They've been working for me for years, they have good action and they're just an old stand-by bait for me. Plenty of sizes and colors to choose from as well as the pumpkin/green flake color you asked for.

Netbait Paca Craw

I like to use a junebug colored Paca Craw whenever I use a jig with purple in it; it gives the jig good contrasting colors. The Paca Craw is another "fall back" or stand-by bait for me. Been around for a long time and they're proven winners. Tons of colors to choose from!



Keitech Swing Impact 4"

I use the Swing Impact (non-fat) for my swim jigs. I like the electric shad color for any time my jig has a little blue or purple and some white. The Keitech Swing Impact has the best action out of anything like it. They also have plenty of models, sizes, and colors to choose from. Probably one of my favorite swimbaits ever!

Sometimes I wonder if they are necessary at all.

But I use them.

For the football jig, I'd use either a twin tail grub, or Berkley chigger craw.

for the the swim jig, I've always used a skinny dipper or cane thumper.

for the finesse jig, I'd use a net bait paca chuck.

For all of these, I could take in to consideration the profile and action of the bait. if its muddy, I want something big and and has a little more thump to it . if its clear, I downsize and don't need as much action.

size and bulk can also have an impact on how fast the jig drops, generally the colder the water, the slower you want your jig to fall.

experiment, I'm sure you'll find baits that work for you, just don't get stuck on one kind, as conditions change...

On the Finesse and Football I would use Netbait Paca Chunk and Paca Chunk Jr. For the swim jig I like Kietech or Swimming Senko.
