I have fished a couple jigs over the years and have had some success with them. I don't see as many on the market. I have been fishing with Dirty Jigs for a few years now and I am super pleased with them. I consider flipping and pitching jigs to be my main technique. I was hoping somebody would shed some light on the pros and cons of living rubber in a jig and when you would use them versus when it would be undesirable. I currently have a few heavier football jigs with living rubber that I use in deeper off shore stricter and around rocky bottoms... I do like them

Living rubber causes a lot of movement, its round compared to flat. The time you would choose a jig without living rubber would be when you need something more finesse. When youre using big bulky trailers with craws a flapn thats when you want living rubber.

I have yet to see a down side of using Living Rubber. I make my own and I fish them all year long. My jigs have a mix of silicon and rubber skirt. In the winter I will use half the liver rubber than I usually put on them but it's still there. The advantage to it is that it moves better in the slightest current so it works well in tough conditions, Mainly because it gives you subtle movement when it's sitting still. So I can milk the strike zone for a lot longer than I can a regular silicon jig. 

Ok thanks.
