Spider grubs

[jig fisherman]

Just a few questions about them:
what colors?
size jighead
size hook
type of jighead
Thanks for any of the help on my first question on this site

Table Rock chompers are my favorite spider grub.They smell bad but the action is excellent.

Rootbeer/green flake, dark melon pepper for colors.

The jig head vary from fotball heads to chomper heads to Arkie heads. I look for a 3/0 hook.

10-12 lb test non braid line.Fluorocarbon line probably preferable but I use P-Line floroclear in the smaller lb test lines instead of fluorocarbon lines.

There are quite a few spider grub brands, I have Yamamotos but I believe chompers and the Arkie crawlin grub outfishes the Yamamoto brand on a consistant basis.Of course that has been my experience and it probably doesn't apply to everyone. Ivan

I like rootbeer/green flake and I also like the #5 brown/chartreuse laminated.

Dang Zooker, your arsenal has developed into a wider variety of lures.

I posted above under a different username, but its time to go back to the original username once again. Bassdozer has alot of spider grub articles, here is a few.

lol.. pnj you know me of old. being well vested in ALL forms of angling is what i have always done..

you know i have done everything from dabbling in spring runs with a fly rod for brookies. to dragging a seth green rig loaded with suttons miles from shore..

bass anglin is not really that much differant from finesse shakey head fishing to high speed spinnerbait fishing. i have pretty much got an angle on everthing...

What is a good size spider grub for a lake that is heavily pressured and the bass are normally less than 3 lbs?
Also what size jighead should I use, do I want a slow fall or a quick falling bait? I will be using them in the summer time if that helps.

i use the standard yamamoto hula grub i catch a bunch of small bass on it..the bass in the picture above was abou 15"

I use the exact same set up zooker, it catches fish and seems to work better for me in the spring.

Chompers are awesome here on Table Rock lake. I use them mainly in the winter and spring in the same places I throw a jig.
