This 35-year-old Scrounger Jighead design has proven deadly on bass. The Scrounger Jighead's upright soft plastic bill pushes water up and around, creating a rocking motion that really juices the swimming action of any plastic trailer you add. Run it fast or slow, high or low, as a search bait or bounced on the bottom. The longer the Scrounger's bill, the greater the water resistance, and the higher/faster your bait can run.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by TheBigO Just what I expected!
I have purchased these before and they always do what I expect them to do. It is a great bait presenter under many different uses. They can be fished from the top to the bottom and catch fish. Wouldn't be caught without them.........

Rated 5 out of 5Â by jzFish works great
I wasn't to sure about these but after trying them out I am now a believer. The action alone made me a believer. I caught my first fish on one today with a super fluke jr. rigged on it. They bounce pretty good off cover and seem to be weedless. The largemouth just about swallowed the thing. Great lure, simple to use, and a super sharp hook.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by smallwater Finally Used It
I bought the 1/8 oz jigs last year and just tried one today. I rigged a Kalin 3" grub on it and cast it into my favorite pond. It went to the bottom and after about 2 seconds I raised the rod tip and a 5lb bass ate it. I next caught another good bass and a decent pickerel. I'm going to try different plastics as I go through this Fall. The side to side action is effective.

My dad and I went to Hyco lake and caught 12 white bass and 2 largemouth bass in 2 hours. We also hooked 2 other largemouths but when they jumped they became unhooked.

The descriptions have SLB, SMB and SSB in them. Pretty sure that's for long, medium and short bill. I agree that the product descriptions for these could be better. I like the long bill 1/8 or 3/16 oz.

Which bill length would give your lure the most action or best wobble?Answers
A:Â
LONG BILL GIVES THE WIDEST WOBBLE.A:Â
The length of the bill is different for each size of jig head. We have trimmed down some jig heads to get a little tighter wobble when retrieving.A:Â
The perfect finesse hook has a shorter neck so you don't get enough bite but the perfect worm hook has a 1/2 inch neck does very well with the trick worm, finesse worm, and the senkoDetails:Â

I had the best luck throwing this type jighead (not Scrounger) with a Fluke in large openly spaced pads, just swimming it over and around the pads. The Fluke would come off a pad, wiggling, streaming bubbles, and would get nailed almost immediately!A:Â
Use it with a swimbait. Shallower water, over weedbeds, in sparse pads, and reeds. Reel it in, pause and let it fall, or jig it. Think of it as a soft crankbait. Great fish catching tool.A:Â
it can very just like texas rigging. You can crawl it or make it hop like a jig.A:Â
I fish it like a swimbait with a plastic minnow. I have found that you can use a very slow retrieve to try and bounce off mid to bottom structure or swim a little faster to trigger a reacton strike.If you want to burn these just under the surface, make sure you go with the long bill version. Otherwise you will be dissatisfied with the product.

Use 10-12 # test with the light jigs and 15 # for the heavier jigs. I use soft hollow belly swimbaits and worms with a large paddle tail . They are very effective by reeling slowly with an occasional quick jerk. I fish them close to bottom by inetially starting off the bottom and letting them drop back to the bottom at the end of one my quick jerks. Try to keep a good eye on the line while dropping because this is the usual time of the strike.Good luck!Answers

The bait seems to stay on very well. I rigged this jighead with a 4" Powerbait Power Minnow. It stayed on the whole time I used it, and didn't have to adjust it at all after catching fish on it.

Anyone have any trouble with these not vibrating? I used them with the clip and a curly tail grub. Seems like the bait wouldn't vibrate as it shoud. Any suggestions? ThanksAnswers
A:Â
I get one that has that problem from time to time. I just get another one.Details:Â
I got a pack of these a while ago and I lost the clip that attaches to the hook eye so I wanted to know if the jighead would operate properly with out it.Answers
A:Â
no didnt realize it came with first time i used them and i did greatA:Â
NOT AS WELL. WHEN I GOT MINE IN THE MAIL - MY PACKAGE WAS OPEN AND THE CLIPS WEREN'T IN THERE SO I TRIED IT WITHOUT THE CLIP - NOT A GOOD IDEA. THE CLIP ALLOWS FOR A MUCH BROADER SWING IN THE BAIT.A:Â
I would recommed the clips to allow the proper action of the bait. You can buy something like a normans speed clip that might work as well.Answers
A:Â
THE JUGS THEMSELVES ARE PRETTY SUBSTANTIAL. I WAS SUPRISED BUT IN A GOOD WAY. I HAVE THE 1/2 & 3/4 OUNCE BAITS AND HAVE HAD GREAT SUCCESS WITH THEM. THE 1/2 CAN BE FISHED SHALLOW OR DEEP WITH A 5 INCH BAIT EASILY. I PROBABLY WONT GO LESS THAN 4 INCH WITH THE 1/2. THE 3/4 CAN HADLE A 7 INCH SWIMBAIT EASILY.A:Â
3/16 oz. to 1oz. The 3/16 works well with 3" to 4" baits and 1/4 oz. works with 3.5 to 5" baits. experiment with different sozes. When you get the right size the fish will tell you!
