You could catch trout rigging these with a curly tail grub, a tube jig, or a small paddle tail. Throwing on a beetlespin can be good too. Powerbait is really meant to be be fished on hooks, not jigs. A carolina rig on the bottom would be a more effective use of the powerbait.

Yes they would but not needed for power bait . Use small regular hooks for power bait , ( someone else feel free to hop in here with correct hook size ) I’d guess like size 6 , U can use the jigs for small plastic worms , but stocked ur probably better off with plain hook and dough bait. Just figure out what color they want . And where they are in water column. Sometimes a bobber (slip bobber recommended with small split shot , sometimes split shot on bottom . I like small spoons in-line spinners and flies personally.
