When I rig a brush hog I make sure the flappers are going to kick up if it drags over a rock or something. Drag one across your finger and see which side the flappers kick up at and rig it that way. The baby brush hog is all I use too!

Randy is right about Brush Hogs being great fish catchers. One little thing I do is pinch the bottom of the arm looking appendages loose from the body to give just a little bit more action.

[@allenfowler1794]

I do the same thing.

[@Bankfishindude]

This bait actually got me “hooked” on bass fishing y’all! Thanks Randy 🎣

Texas rigged Baby Brush Hog is my favorite bait!!!

[@ctgilcrest]

C rigged I like to hop it and let it settle down.

[@runner3590]

Yesterday, I used that exact brush hog as a top-water and caught several. Most versatile bait I have in my arsenal. Great video.

Great tip Randy. The Baby Brush Hog is my favorite Carolina Rig bait. I’ll use it from post spawn through the fall. I also caught my PB with a 6” Brush Hog on a C-Rig at Falcon Lake. I’ll flip with it too. In Texas my favorite color is Watermelon Red. I’ve also done really well on WM Gold, Tilapia, Red Bug and a natural baitfish color. It’s a staple in any bass fisherman’s tackle box.

I caught a few at Amistad over memorial weekend. Was using green pumpkin.

A great alternative to the brush hog is the Gambler Bacon Rind. It has one large swimming tail in back instead of two smaller ones and had two “ wings” where the front legs would be instead of the looped legs of the Brush hog.

I love these Randy! These quick tips on how to fish baits when and where is awsome 👍🤠

[@dwightstephenson_fishing5150]

Baby brushhog on a split shot type rig did me well in my first kayak tournament of the season. 2 fish in 3 casts. Green pumpkin magic

[@bruceraiken2806]

Here and I thought they settled the idea of baits floating off the bottom with the ole ball and chain awhile back, especially zoom baits (which I love) with all of the added salt!

[@davidbaker1359]

Prolly my favorite bait to throw! 👍🎣

[@doughensley9314]

It’s one of the greatest baits ever made, in shallow clear creeks and streams I love the Teeny brush hog Texas rigged and mojo rigged (finesse Carolina rig). On large smallmouth lakes I use the middle sized one, green pumpkin with purple flakes, it always get bit, it can save the day when nothing else works!

Had a trip to Mteri dam in Zimbabwe couple years back . Just before spawn and slayed a Lot of big bass pitching junebug light mojo rigged brushhogs up against the bullrushers in 2 foot of water . Fishing a main lake point . Was the most productive for the trip .

[@RoosterCogburn2112]

I've had some of these in my tackle bag for years and never used them until this weekend.
I was using it on the Carolina rig and I noticed when I was reeling the bait bag close to the boat that the lure was twisting like a helicopter lure.
I wasn't very happy about that.

[@petecampa]

I've always cut down the length of the two tails... gives you an option of more fluttering tails... June bug is my go to color...

[@JohnK-dv7pb]

Is there any advantage to the baby size on a shakeyhead vs dragging it Texas rigged?

[@jeffc2630]

How that FFS on your boat ?
Keeping that quiet ?

[@TheAverageFisherman99]

Literally everywhere. Brush hogs catch fish..plain and simple.

[@mr.g8067]

Watermelon candy is my go to. Love fishing that bait on these Cali reservoirs and the Delta.

[@johnaz1018]

You should of shown how to put the hook on it

[@Old-School-Bassin]

I’ll pit my favorite color against any other Baby Brushog color hands down! Any lake, any conditions, anytime……. Can you guess the color Randy? Let’s test my challenge at Tablerock.

[@kristiangates2673]

Ruby red

[@Old-School-Bassin]

@@kristiangates2673 My second is a little known color called “South African Special”

[@Old-School-Bassin]

There is another deadly color for finesse drop shot or Texas rigging in clearer water “Robo Worms - Morning Sunrise” I get mine from Tackle Wearhouse and buy 20 packs at a time. Give it a try sometime! Let me know how it goes at your lake.

[@ctgilcrest]

My first love...

[@howardballmann1881]

Killer bait on Stockton.

[@rvfishingyet]

Love the brush hog, my first Texas rig confidence bait. Thanks for the video Randy. Keep up the teacher vibe!

[@angleratlarge6787]

Seems to be a forgotten bait these days. Best all around fish catcher produced.

[@Daybreak_Enterprises_]

Why would you fish a brush hog over a lizard?

[@vegasvato55]

You haven't lived until you neko rig a brush hog....

[@wolverinex4243]

When there's brush? Kidding. Whenever the fook you want to.
