Jig Styles

Featured Replies

I mainly fish jigs on rocky banks and steep drop offs and brush. Which style jig mold would be best for each style???

Football for rocks and steep drops. Arkie for brush.

I have to agree with what has been stated.  However, I was digging around in my molds a few weeks ago and found an old banana jig mold.  I made a few and used them on a long stretch of dam rip rap.  They were as snag free as the footballs if not a little better.  I have since made up 4 dozen to have for further study.

I'm a die hard jig guy, but have never heard or seen of a banana style till this week? Is it another Southern thang or something? Any pics?

I too like football jigs for the situation you mentioned.

I've been experimenting more with jigs tied on plain ball heads. They seem to work ok in shallow situations or current situations.

i dug one of those banana molds out of a clearance bin at a local fishing show last year and love it. Its the main jig i used all last summer.

Thanks for the advice everyone. Im getting the poisontail mold because it just looks really good. But my dad is getting the football and arky molds. So in the end it worked out perfectly.
