Anyone have any luck with having a teaser follow the lure?

Going to give it a try with some big flies and rubber.

Say a pencil or tin and have the teaser follow the deliverer.

Try a piece of mono around a foot long with a teaser at the tail in lieu of a bucktail.

SD...thats what I meant...maybe 18 inches off the tail of plug/tin.


I know most people have a smaller teaser before the larger plug. Seems to trigger an instinct in Stripers thats like .... hey these guys are busy why don`t I grab his snack...just wondering if anyone tried the reverse with any success.

yes.....

Using a trailer fly is dynamite at times.
There are times when a dropper in front of the plug will not
get hit, but the trailer will.

Good Luck.

I have tried it....with no luck! I believe its called a stinger?:)

Couple weeks ago I was getting alot of whacks on a pencil but no hook ups....took out a small teaser and tied it 6 inches behind the siwash on the tail....no luck!

I`m thinking variations different

heavy tin on the bottom....18 to 24 " back a big fly teaser ... twitch along a sandy bottom....maybe even with a very small black cork to float the fly a bit.

Off a pencil or metal lip swimmer tail....20" flouro to 7" black eel teaser.... slow swimming

heavy tin in deep water.... 8 to 10" skinny black rubber eel/worm slow swimming

etc. etc.

Great thinking - tin on the bottom, stir up the sand abit, teaser 18inches back, bass see's/hears the commotion, looks, see's the sand eel 18 inches back which has just emerged from the sand.

Think like a bass - what do they see and why do they strike - feeding heavy, or just happen to see alittle tidbit and why not chow that down.
