Jig questions.

Featured Replies

Alright so I know jigs are versatile baits. Could a person use only jigs year around and catch fish. Such as use a jig tipped with a craw when they want craws and then when the fish want a curly tail worm could you tip a jig with a senko and still have success and then when the fish want baitfish use a swim jig and be covered. Sorry for the multiple questions but I'm trying to figure jig fishing out

If you added a vibrating jig and a finesse jig to your list, I would say yes.

go to the top of this page and select videos then select jigs.

there is a lot of information here on  jig fishing.

I use a single type of jig for casting, flipping, pitching, & swimming.

 

When working an area I don't change jig type just because the structure/cover changes.

I have a buddy who only throws jigs and poppers.  He has great results as he has become very proficient with both, but his numbers are lower than mine as I tend to use a more diverse arsenal

Anything can be used as a jig trailer.

There are hundreds of jig styles and shapes because anglers are always trying to improve performance.

To answer your ? yes, you can and I do fish jigs year around using a variety of jig types and weights depending on what the bass are eating and where they are located.

Examples; 3/32 & 1/8 oz dart head with 4" curl tail worm, my favorite 7/16 oz hair jig with pork rind trailer, 3/8 oz weedless swim jig with Berkeley Chigger craw, 3/8, 1/2, 3/4 oz plain football jig with GYCB double tail Hula grub, 3/4, 1 oz punch jig with beaver type trailers, 1/4 oz shakey jig with 6" cut tail worms, etc, etc.
