Field Notes

Rig on a jig head, weighted swimbait hook, or with a light Texas-rig to keep the paddle tail kicking. Cast and retrieve steadily; vary speed and add pauses to trigger extra tail action when fish are following but not committing.

Pros

  • Paddle tail provides extra kick and lifelike swimming action
  • Versatile for a range of water conditions
  • Soft body works well with multiple rigging styles

Cons

  • Requires a suitable hook/jig head to fish
  • Tail action depends on correct rigging and retrieval speed
