I Ran Out Of Jig Trailers, Wont Hit Anything But A Rage Craw!

Featured Replies

So ive started letting the weather dictate what lures ill be throwin on a given day. I had tied on a jig I made matched with a black n blue rage craw, since we had a warm up last weekend, and coldfront early this week, it was much colder out than the water temp. Anyways I had 5 fish in the boat in the first 8-10 pitches. I started running out of craws in that color, tried the small beaver trailer an they wanted nothing of that. I ran out of black n blue and saved the day with watermelon red flake rage craws. I left shore at 1030 a returned back at 230 to get my kid from school, I boated 16 bass, 5 of were smallies! This is my PB for the year, as ive cought numbers but not quality until today! I thought I had a decent understanding to fishing a jig but whoa did I learn a few things about jig fishing and figuring out a pattern. Almost every fish was on a log, alot of spots I got 2-5 fish from. Just an awesome day!

Every time I order New jigs for my last few orders I order a mix of different styles and colors of the rage plastics too from Mike Siebert. I didn't keep track of how many I purchased too but I'm stocked up on them. I just setup to jig rods today. A spinning outfit and a bait caster outfit with braid. I hope to get out at 4:30 am tomorrow. I hope the jigs work as well for me as they are for you. Bigbill

Nice report and glad you're having a lot of jig fishing Fun!

Don't ya love it when a plan comes together ;)

I need a day like that. I lost one of my jigs yesterday, and will hold off on fishing them until I can get on the boat with my buddy again.

Nice work.  I know the Ragetail anxiety attack when you run out all too well....

 

The "dead bait zone," lol:

I haven't had a outing like that in awhile...

Sometimes going fishin just to go fishin is the best time you can have.

 

 

Good Job!

What size(weight) jig are you using when pitching? I am new to this.
