Chunk (jig trailer)
A flat pork-style chunk with two claws, made to sit on a jig hook and turn a skirted jig into a crawfish.
Soft plastics are the biggest family in bass fishing: 36 shapes, each designed for a rig, a depth and a mood.
- Shape = design purpose: fish, worm, craw, creature, tube, frog
- Finesse tier vs power tier: the same shape at 3.5 in and 7 in is two different techniques
- Tail type decides the action; body decides the fall
- Rig it the way it was designed to be rigged
- What it is — A short, flat body with two claws or flappers and a thick head that holds on a jig hook. The chunk slows the jig's fall and gives the skirt a silhouette.
- Designed for — Flipping jigs, casting jigs and football jigs — the trailer choice when you want a compact, slow-falling craw profile rather than a big flapping one.
- Trade-offs — Trailer only.
