I was wondering how hard is it to fish Bass Jigs with a spinning reel? I have never attempted to fish many Bass Jigs but I am going to really push myself this season to learn how to fish them but every article i read they only talk about using baitcasters not spinning setups don't get me wrong i can use a baitcaster just fine but I sold all of the ones I had in the past and now all I have is spinning rods so i guess what im asking is does anyone on the site fish Bass Jigs with out a baitcaster? and if so what type or setup do you use rod,line,ect. any help would be great oh and I fish Minnesota lakes only not sure if that matters just thought I would throw it out there thanks again!

Read a little of that...it will help.


Yes you can fish Jigs on spinning set up.1/4oz and under I use a 7' medium rod fast or extra fast(6-12lbs test line). 7'MH rod for jigs 3/8 oz or higher(preferably 14lbs test line or higher) . While I prefer to use a baitcaster for anything over 3/8 oz,but use the right rod and reel and you can easily do with a spinning set up also.
The magic lure in your tackle box is the lure you have the most confidence in.
