Favorite plastics for jika rig
What's your favorite jika rig plastic? I've had most of my jika catches on a 6" Yamamoto twin tail grub. I really haven't tried too much besides the grubs and the Biwaa Armorded Craw, which looked really good. I plan on throwing brush hogs, culprit incredicraw, tubes, and psycho dad's this season.

Yuki bug. I'm running out though. Good thing they're durable. The Owner JR minnows are great, too. I have even fewer of those.... Also, the rage tail shellcracker, structure craw or db craw, whatever it is, and the regular rage craws. Swing Impact fats are great on any rig. Megabass Dot Crawlers work really well. And beaver style baits. And brush hogs, you're on the right track there. I haven't tried it, but i bet a fluke would work well. I don't know. The possibilities are practically endless. Jig Rigs are my favorite bait to flip and pitch to pockets in mats or nooks and crannies around rip-rap. The heavier weights will punch through about anything, too.
This is the way.

When the "Jika Rig" is rigged up properly, the weight acts like a "Crayfish Tail" folding in and out. Tip the "Jika Rig" with a 4" Berkley Powerbait Chigger Craw in Green Pumpkin, or Pumpkin Green Flake or use a 4" Berkley Havoc Pit Boss in "Vampire Orange". I also like the "Summer Crawdad Color." A great way to fish it is to drag it slowly along the bottom, imitating a "Crayfish" just creeping along the bottom.

Owner Yuki Bug is the best in my opinion. I am glad i bought over 60 packs on the bugs alone in the clearance on Tacklewarehouse. Not sharing

The Keitech Crazy Flapper is perfect for it. I'm thinking the Noisy Flapper toad style bait would be great too, especially around mats.
This is the way.
