Anyone use this type of plastic? if so, how do you go about rigging them? I did one up with .080 wire. Goofy, but I think it will do. Do people use live sucker rigs with these?

Thanks.

For swim shads I go with big swimbait jig heads. Big fan of mustad, kalins, and owner. Excellent control down weedlines and anytime I get hung up I just rip it free. Never had a problem.

I use shads in both a 12" and 15" sizes.... but I mold my own.
I had some problems finding a rigging I liked so I just started molding the rigging inside like most other swimbaits.
My frame has about an ounce of weight, an 8/0 mustad jig hook and .062 wire hook hangers. I usually run two 7/0 mustad 3551's for belly hooks
