Ode To The Jig
ive just started using jigs this winter and im not looking back. caught a few good ones. the bite on a jig is so different compared to other lures. although i do agree braid is a must especially if your fishing heavy stuff and its hot out.

Rigging A Loooooonnnggggggg Worm
ive caught dinks all day long on 10" worms bigger than they are. im sure a 12" worm would be no issue.

Line Selection Question For New Rod/reel Combo
ive got two rods rigged with 20lb p-line floroclear and love it. its for my jig rods but same goes for texas rigs. this line casts so easy and its easy to manage with line conditioner but my rods recommend up to 20lb line

Jigs With Rattles Or Not?
yeah i fish where the bottom is nasty. in some spots its weedy, in some spots its sandy, in others its rocky and such. figured rattles wouldnt hurt.
-
Jigs With Rattles Or Not?
So forgetful that I realized I should have noticed if my jigs had rattles or not attached. Do they really matter in muddy/stained water? Im sure it would have helped me compared to no rattles on a football jig in 10-15ft of muddy water

Caught This Decent One Today
had to have been caught between 10-15 ft deep. caught a dink earlier in the day before this one

Caught This Decent One Today
I was using a black/blue football jigs 3/8oz with a rage chunk hopping and dragging constantly down to a channel by the dam in the lake i fish and he slammed it so hard a part of the rod where the bottom of the reel sits into made a cracking noise. he slammed it as i was about to bounce the jig up and hooked himself. such a good fight. didnt know a weight. any guess?

Flourocarbon/flourocarbon Coated
p line floroclear. i have it in 12lb and 20lb for finessse jigs and casting/flipping jigs. ive never had any issues with breakage or abrasion. i use the polomar knot for it and never had any issues. its good priced for a 300yd spool.

Shaky Head Jig Sizes
yeah i have all baitcasters and one rigged with 12lb fluoro already and id mostly be using craw type baits and occasionally worms
-
Shaky Head Jig Sizes
would 12lb fluorocarbon line be light enough?
-
Shaky Head Jig Sizes
What size/weight are good all around? and what type of jig types? figured since im starting to get heavy into jig fishing why not add shaky head to my techniques when the bites are tough.

Weather And Jigs
not sure. there are two lakes...one drains into the other by a dam and the lake with the dam, by the dam is super deep with structure and channels/drop-offs. if that makes sense. its kind of like a cove in that area. on the banks are laid down trees and some brush piles. heres a pic of what im talking about. part of the lake on the left is deeper in that cove. that walkway is a dam.

Weather And Jigs
Ok so today til friday is reaching highs in the mid to upper 60s and night lows in the 40s...now my question is where will the fish be this time of year with a few days of nice weather like this? im strictly jig fishing to learn it more so im trying to figure out where to start

Zoom Small Salty Chunks
rage craw products are awesome. ive used the rage craws texas rigged and the rage chunks are good too. very durable and the action is so alive
-
What Quality Inexpensive Fluorocarbon?
p line floroclear is good. i have 12lb and its smooth and easy to manage. i have some 20lb floroclear being shipped for my jig setup.
-
Zoom Small Salty Chunks
so the super chunk jr works for 1/4oz to 1/2oz jigs?
-
Zoom Small Salty Chunks
what trailers do you use? i normally use rage chunks
-
Better Check Your Dick's
basically anything with a that ends with a .97 price tag is 50% off?
-
Zoom Small Salty Chunks
I need some trailers for my jigs. I use 1/4, 3/8, and 1/2oz jigs. This time of year i figured the bass wouldn't want something too crazy for action and the Zoom small salty chunks look ideal. Are they too small or just right for the jig sizes I use? or do I need to put bigger chunks on bigger jigs? would the action of the zoom super chunk be too much?

Fluorocarbon Or Braid?
broke down and bought some p line floroclear in 20lb. i have it in 12lb and love it. i couldn’t stray away from it on a side note-i use the palomar knot...how many wraps would i need for 20lb?
