Fatso Pig Grub

Thump More Water

The GrandeBass 4.5" Fatso Pig Grub is a compact soft plastic trailer designed to surpass traditional thin-tail grubs. Featuring a ribbed body and an extra-wide “husky” curl tail, it’s engineered to produce heavy-thumping vibration and increased water displacement that bass can track through their lateral lines.

Proudly Made in the U.S.A., this injection-molded grub is infused with Xtreme Scent and salt for added presence in the water. It’s commonly used as a trailer on moving baits or rigged solo on a Texas rig when anglers want strong tail action at a range of retrieve speeds.

Key Features

• Heavy-thumping tail action – Extra-wide “husky” curl tail designed for stronger vibration than traditional grubs.
• Enhanced water displacement – Tail profile stimulates bass lateral lines through increased movement and turbine-style twist.
• Durable tail construction – Thicker tail engineered to withstand more strikes compared to thinner grub designs.
• Scent & salt infused – Soft plastic compound infused with Xtreme Scent and salt.
• Versatile rigging profile – Compact ribbed body pairs cleanly with vibrating jigs, spinnerbaits, and Texas rigs.

Best Use & Conditions

Rigging & Tips

• Thread straight onto vibrating jigs or spinnerbaits to maximize tail rotation and thump.
• Trim slightly if needed to match shorter skirted jig profiles.
• On a Texas rig, allow the bait to fall on semi-slack line to emphasize the twisting tail action.
• Adjust retrieve speed—the tail is designed to maintain action across slow to moderate retrieves.
