rockfisherman Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 (edited) Hi Raiders I need a little direction on hook positioning and Jighead type for a Squidgy pro range plastic. Its the Flick bait type, tried to down load an image but its not working for some reason. Any information would be appreciated.

bassboy888 Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 when rigging the hook should be exposed on the flat top side (longer fork part of the tail) i use tt jig heads with weight to suit depth and current. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When referring to hook positioning, I was talking about how far down the top would be best for the right balance of hooking potential and tail action...

kulch Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 what size jigeads are you supposed to use for 5" and 7" shads? I've got some jigs with 3/0 hooks for the 5" size shad but they just look like they are going to dominate the shad, and take all the life out of it - basically the look too big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catchin Jack Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Have you checked out Youtube for information on it? I'm sure you'd find plenty of instructional clips on this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a few clips on you tube, I might just have to go out and buy squidgy secrets... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
