About 3 years ago, I was fishing a tournament on El Salto and one of the fisherman gave me a jig trailer that was made out of wetsuit material. This stuff was indestructible and had great action in the water. I failed to ask who produced this trailer and would love to get my hands on some more. It was shaped like a chunk trailer. Any help would be appreciated.

This one is made of Silicone Rubber.. seems closer to what you're talking about.

Thanks Basstex. That Keitech is not quite what this was. I am going to make a few calls today and try and track the guy down that had those.

The wetsuit material is neoprene. It comes in 2,3,or 4 mm. Some material and fabric stores carry it. I have seen and used the trailers before back on the Potomac. If I remember I got them at the large tackle show they have in Richmond Virginia every year.

another source for making your own is cutting up old mouse pads.

If you decide to make some, Get a cookie cutter. Reshape it the way you want.
