How to Rig a Twin Tail Grub

- Texas Rig: A weedless setup for fishing in grass, timber, or other heavy cover.
- Carolina Rig: Dragged along the bottom to imitate a fleeing crawfish or baitfish.
- Trailer: Commonly used on jigs, spinnerbaits, or chatterbaits to enhance profile and action.
- Weightless Rig: Ideal for a slow fall in shallow water or around docks.
Fishing Techniques
- Dragging: Slowly move the grub along the bottom to mimic a crawling crawfish.
- Hopping: Short, sharp lifts create bursts of action that trigger reaction strikes.
- Swimming: Retrieve steadily to imitate baitfish, perfect for covering water quickly.
- Vertical Jigging: Drop the grub near structure and lift it gently to entice strikes.
Best Situations for Twin Tail Grubs
- Clear or Stained Water: The dual tails create visible movement, effective in a range of water clarities.
- Rocky or Hard Bottoms: Mimics crawfish behavior, especially in areas like ledges, points, or riprap.
- Cooler Water Temperatures: Works well during spring and fall when bass are more lethargic.
- Finesse or Power Fishing: Suitable for both techniques depending on rigging and retrieve.
Pro Tips
- Match colors to the local forage: green pumpkin, watermelon, or brown for crawfish; white or shad colors for baitfish.
- Use lighter weights for finesse presentations and heavier weights to maintain bottom contact in deeper water or current.
- Pair with a fluorocarbon line for better sensitivity when fishing bottom-contact techniques.
