Trailers are used mostly on the back of a bass jig, however, some anglers report success by fishing these baits as a finesse bait on a smaller jighead or drop shot rig.
Tackle Recommendations
Rod, Reel & Line
Soft Plastic Chunk & Pork Trailers are usually fished as a trailer on a bass jig with a baitcaster, heavier line and a heavier rod. 17 to 30 pound test line is the norm, although, you may go lighter or heavier depending on the situation.
