I have that exact same set up, jig + craw. Never catch anything and just stick to Texas rigged worm

This is fine, I personally like it a little more compact though. Typically Ill trim the skirt to just under the hook and bite off just enough of the craw so the claws start where the skirt stops. Doing this can give it more action but it’s mostly preference

I think it looks great. Id use it. It’s definitely not too big. Even smaller bass will go for that. Personally I like to reel my jig and trailer through the water while I watch and make sure the trailer is flapping even at slow speeds. Having the trailer too short and encumbered by the skirt can reduce the action of the trailer. Anyway good luck!

I trim the skirt to where it ends slightly past the bend of the hook. Makes the soft plastic more noticeable while staying weedless
