Im sure it would work. The problem I see is you have to use a heavy action rod and heavy braid to fish it. With the paper mouths trout have you will loose alot of fish. Looks like your throwing a damn crab trap with swimbaits attached.

Watching a FLW bass tournament right now and everyone that is fishing the final day is throwing the Alabama Rig and smoking the fish. Catching 2 at a time on some cast.

Yeah just like a half ounce jig (with five other quarter oz jigs tied to that and five softbodied Swim baits around a quarter oz each on those, so yeah just like a half ounce jig.)
