I also made it back to Miami County but that was on Saturday and we did pretty good again caught 2 or 3 nice fish and a bunch of small ones ill upload pics later. All my nice ones came off of my hand tied jigs which made it that much better (i just started tying like 3 weeks ago) and a rage craw as a trailer.

i have both but just recently got my first full grip baitcast rod and i can say i like it way much more than my split grip one i dont know why i just do its all personal preference

I'm talking about skirt colors for spinnerbaits I cant find a chartruse on fishingskirts.com that would be universal it all has red or orange or green flakes in it. And what are some patterns for jigs that would be good, like colors to get? I have green pumpkin with black spots and watermelon just looking for more colors to try i also have some other colors like Orange, black, blue, yellow, and red..should I try some living image colors? Like i said I'm just wanting to experiment and try new things and curious to what colors you guys use?

Probably going to hit Miami State Lake again this weekend and curious to see what this rain will do to them. What you guys think?

It was so awesome i cant wait to get out Saturday hopefully and do some more fishing with them. What are some colors you guys use when you tie jigs? i cant seem to find just a solid chartruse but i will keep looking.

oh we passed you, you were headed in we were headed out.

pbrussell what time were you out there on Saturday I feel like we passed you guys on our way in if you were fishing points we had a camo boat. we were out from like 1pm to 4 or 5pm

I too went out to Miami on Saturday and my dad and I whacked um a lot of small fish but we managed some 2-4lbers my biggest being on one of my first hand tied jigs with a rage trailer. It was awesome to get out on the boat for the first time and catch a lot of fish.

Well I caught my first fish on one of my own jigs Saturday and it was awesome knowing that I tied it and it worked!

Im with you i hunt from September 1st to may when conservation season for snow geese is over but like others i fish for my hunting withdraws. and like you again i don't turkey hunt, Ive done it before just don't like it i hate ticks and it just doesn't get my blood flowing like having ducks locked up and committed at 20yrds in your decoys after you called them in. Im a die hard waterfowler and on the last day of duck season i stay from the minute shooting time starts till the last second of shooting time.

well i got my northstar jig heads in today and stsarted tying and it is addicting coming up with colors that you think will work and it is fun to tie when i have nothing else to do

Anyone been to LaCygne lately? I'm going to head down there next weekend and was wondering if anyone know what they are hitting on or direction of where to go? thanks guys!

Mine were very fast also I ordered monday and got it Wednesday

thakns, and i will try that

thanks cadman

well i just got my order in of skirt material (still waiting on jig heads from northstar) and i took an old jig with no skirt and 2 spinnerbaits with no skirt and decided to try out tying for the first time and this is what i got. i thought it looked pretty good for my first time. any thoughts? comments? just starting out and looking for any info i can get. thanks to everyone on here for great info on tying jigs. and a special thanks to gene for the video it really helped me in this process.

what reel ratio do you prefer for your jig reel and why? and what is your jig setup? rod? reel? looking at a revo sx and cant decide on 6:4:1 or 7:1:1 for my jig rod

I would also like to know been looking at their rods for a while

well having all 3 within 15miles from my house i find myself at BPS the most for fishing because of the selection, Cabelas the second most because of hunting stuff and then dicks the least cause they have a terrible selection here

i talked to them the other day and im not sure on exact prices for everything buy if u buy a 169.99 reel u get $30 off with the trade in i think it is the same for rods i saw the first page of the flyer he had it behind the counter and thats the only page he would show me

alright thanks guys i was just currious

Say there is a 3/8 oz to 1-1/4 oz lure weight on a rod. Would there be less sensitivity in a 3/8 oz jig compared to say a 1/2oz jig?

I have a 6'6 m and I love it really sensitive and light you won't regret it if u get ine

^ thats what i wanted to hear i might be getting 2 actually one for jigs and one for crankbaits one on a veritas (jigs) and one a vendetta (cranking)

Anybody use these reels?? I'm thinking about getting one in 6:4:1 on a 7'3" mh mod for my cranking setup?? Any advice is useful thanks guys
