I use 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2oz jigs. This time of year i figured the bass wouldn’t want something too crazy for action and the Zoom small salty chunks look ideal. Are they too small or just right for the jig sizes I use? or do I need to put bigger chunks on bigger jigs? would the action of the zoom super chunk be too much?</p> 2012-01-28T07:59:50-05:00 Luck E Strike Scrounger Shad http://www.kevinvandam.com/forums/viewthread/8313/ http://www.kevinvandam.com/forums/viewthread/8313/#When:22:36:15Z <p>Anyone like the Luck E Strike Scrounger Shad and any particular preferences with respect to tipping it?&nbsp; Flukes, skirts, colors, etc?&nbsp; Also some tips on how to fish them would be greatly appreciated.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Smash</p> 2012-01-28T22:36:15-05:00
