All types of jigs? Swim jigs, football, flipping and pitching? I have never really fished jigs before, so as soon as ice is gone around here I am getting into it.

I throw one jig & one jig only!

Thanks for the responses all!

 

So Jig takes it by a long shot. Square bill and wacky senko right up there too. 

 

I rigged a blue/black jig up this morning and will use it on the weekend. I get the feeling that the fish will hang around the rocky drop-offs for quite some time yet. Especially in the heat of the day. I suppose a slow drag will be the best presentation? Is it better to drag it up the drop or let it fall down the drop? 

 

Cheers!

I see the favorite color for jigs is blue/black with similar color trailer. I recenty purchased 1/4oz Outkas Jig Bold Gill. What would be a good trailer and trailer color for this jig?

I read right after the spawn blue-gill color can be deadly, we have a lot of blue gill up here in WI.

Personally I'd be using a variant of green pumpkin or watermelon for a trailer. As for what,well your options are endless. Single or double tail grub. Part of a swim senko. Havoc subwoofer or a paddle tail swim bait. A craw style trailer. The list goes on and on.

Thanks for the help. Learning the swim jig should keep me busy this spring/summer.

It's a good bait to have in your arsenal.
