Strike King Swim Jig/yum Money Minnow.

[Guest]

The only swim bait that I have had any success with is the swimming senko, but I went ahead and picked up some money minnows. Do you usually rig the money minnow on weighted swim bait hook with the corkscrew bait keeper? I've also seen some people put a soft swim bait, like the money minnow, on a jig head and let it drift down the ripples bouncing off rocks.

I like the EWG hooks that Yum designed for each sized bait.

In open water, I rig the 5" or 3" MM on a jighead.

I use a Jewel swimbait jighead for the bigger one (3/8oz or 1/2oz)

Scounger head for the 3" MM (1/4oz long bill)

I found this Sebile hook weight system on tacklewarehouse, and will probably order some. I like them because they are very versatile, with being able to add/remove weights, and use which ever hook you like.

Anyone else give them a try yet?
