Getting Jiggy With It.....countdowns

Featured Replies

I have a jointed rapala countdown in blue with a yellow bottom it's around 5" long.

One day I tried lowering it to the bottom and bringing it 8" off the bottom and jigging it. I found a honey hole where there is a bass there every time I jig that spot with my jointed rapala countdown. Has anyone ever tried jogging with a jointed rapala?

I think in freshwater called deadsticking but in saltwater it's called jigging.

Jigging is just moving a bait up and down through the water column.

 

Deadsticking is casting out an unweighted/weighted plasting and letting it sit still for long periods of time then making tiny movements in it to try and entice a hit.

Yup I jig the rapala. The bass can't resist it.

Thanks I stand corrected. We learn something new in fishing everyday. I thought deadsticking was kind of twitching it.
