Description

We've added extra weight to the tail of our 4.5" Grub with a staggered offset design that creates an uncompromised "thump" as it ripples through the water. We then cut the bulky body with a forward ribbed pattern to ensure you're displacing the maximum am

Field Notes

Use this grub on a jig head or as a trailer to create a strong tail thump while you work it through cover or along structure. Best results come from steady retrieves with occasional pauses, or light jigging to keep the tail vibrating.

Pros

  • Extra tail weight for a pronounced thump
  • Offset staggered design helps create vibration while rippling
  • Ribbed body pattern increases water displacement

Cons

  • Requires a jig head/rig to fish effectively
  • Thump/vibration is most noticeable with active retrieves

I bought these grubs for the fluke season coming up. The texture and colors are amazing. The feel and look are great. I can't wait to put these to the test after a couple bites.

The 4.5 Grub is a very versatile lure. Rig it on a jig as a trailer and bounce it. Or on a swim jig and let the tail entice a hawg to engulf it. Works great Texas rigged also, bouncing or swimming it!! You won't go wrong unless you fail to use them.

Normally i just put a spinnerbait on and cast away, ordered a bunch of these in various colors including the 6 color kit with storage box and hooks. Originally got them to fish on swim jigs but decided to try something new and throw a few on various nichols pulsator 1/2 oz double willows. Within the first 3-4 cast's i had bass slamming them, the action of the tail is like nothing ive seen on other grubs. Only reason im giving 4 stars is because the tails do tear easily, smaller fish take them off in small bites and a few came with the ends of the tails missing out of the packaging. But stuff happens, still a great bait at a great price. Get some today!

One of my favorite methods of fishing is hopping/swimming a grub on weighted jig heads. Aside from the obvious bite inspiring action of PTL Grubs, there was another quality that stood out. Anyone who uses this technique knows the frustration of having little "tail biters" (a.k.a. Sunnies, Rock Bass, etc) rip the tails from our grubs rendering them effectively useless. I did not lose a single tail in 2.5 days of fishing. Even my father (a bait fisherman) commented on how he was amazed that the tail of his grub remained despite the constant tugging of "tail biters."

One of the oldest and proven ways to catch fish. Leave it to PTL to make a great bait even better

Everything you would want in a grub trailer. Exceptional tail length. Good color quality. Detailed design even down to the angle of the grub ribs to displace the most water. Only request would be for more color options.

Love these grubs on chatterbaits and spinnerbaits. I used many brands and I feel the PTL grubs do the best work imo. It has its own uniqueness, detail, and quality of how it's made. Will be ordering more in the near future.

If your looking for a grub that not only performs well in the water but also is strong enough to stand up to being pulled through cover and can withstand a big fish here it is. Many other plastic I've used would rip off the hook leaving me to reset many time or the tail would rip off wasting many grubs throughout a day but not with this grub, and the add power of the hog tonic to attract fish makes these a must have for me.

This one lake that we fish is bad for suspended fish and we have always been able to either catch them on a senco or a grub on a darder head. Last year I came across your website and liked the looks of your grubs. So my fishing buddy and I placed an order for a few of your grubs. When we got them we fished them up against the grubs that we had always used and caught fish in that lake on. I have to honestly say that your grubs was catching four to one vs the other popular brand grubs and they were lasting much longer also. So needless to say we placed another order this year. The two biggest difference in the two are the ribs on the body of your grub, But what I think is the biggest difference is the tail action and the vibration that that tail puts off. Anyhow whatever it is I hope you all don't change anything on these grubs because they flat out will catch fish and lots of them.
