The Zoom Standard Brush Hog is a popular 6-inch soft plastic creature bait known for its effectiveness in tempting large bass across the United States. It features multiple appendages that create significant water movement and is salt-impregnated to encourage longer bites.
Key Features:
- Design: Features a beefy body with multiple "wing-like" appendages and a large, fluttery double curl tail that creates significant water movement and vibration to attract fish.
- Material: Made from a soft, salt-impregnated plastic that encourages fish to hold on longer, increasing hook-up opportunities.
- Size & Profile: The standard size is 6 inches, featuring a beefy body and a bulky profile that can imitate bluegill or crawfish.
- Action: It has multiple tails, wings, and arms that move a lot of water, and its design allows it to fall slowly through the water column when unweighted.
All sizes feature a soft, salty plastic that encourages bass to hold on longer, giving anglers more time to set the hook.
Effective Rigging Techniques:
The design of the Zoom Brush Hog makes it highly versatile and effective with several rigging methods.
- Texas Rig: This is arguably the most popular method for fishing the Brush Hog, especially when flipping into heavy cover like grass beds, docks, or lay-down trees, as it is largely weedless. A slip sinker is typically used, with weight varied depending on the depth.
- Carolina Rig: The bait's slow fall rate makes it an excellent choice for a Carolina rig, allowing it to stay in the strike zone and float above vegetation when targeting deeper, offshore structures.
- Jig Trailer: The Brush Hog can be used as a trailer on the back of a football jig or magnum shaky head jig for a bulkier presentation.
- Weightless: When rigged weightless on a Texas rig, the tails create a lot of surface disturbance, making it effective for shallow water situations.
