Hello,

Three real beginner questions, please:

a. *when and where do you folks like to use that Power-Bait moldable stuff
(or the chunks) ?
Would you use it on a bare hook, or as an "adjunct" on some type of rig ?

b. Do ypou like to use a trailer, such as a power-bait crawdad, or such, on
a "jig" that also has marabou like feathers ? *Or, is this a bit "much" ?

c. How do you fish a "jig" ? *Only vertically, or cast and retrieve, or.... ?

Thanks,
B.

a. Never for bass. Use it occasionally trout fishing (sorry for
saying trout)
b. I don't use a trailer with a maribou jig and I have caught bass on
maribou's but not the go to bait for bass
c. Depends on what type of jig and where you are fishing and what
for. With a maribou or soft plastic jig...try different retrieves.
Seems like it's always something different.

Have you considered plastic worms on a texas rig.. Easy starter rig
and almost always effective if fish around. Try various colors,
sizes, and scents/brands. Fish very slow and try weighted and
unweighted. Fish brushy cover areas or if from boat cast to
shore...often will receive bight nearly immediately on cast. Often
fish will swim with bait briefly and you'll just have to get
experienced on when to set hook. If you need assistance on how to rig
ask on this forum or do a search. You'll find a lot on internet on it
or like a say...just give a shout for more help on here.
