I don't get it. The jig was the first lure I decided to use exclusively when learning techniques. Caught many nice quality bass with the old faithful jig.

 

Then I learned the moving baits and reaction bite game and foolishly the jig stayed at home in the garage while chatter baits, spinner baits, underspins and lipless cranks stole the show.

 

Last few outings absolutely nada. Green pumpkins, PB and J, black and blue, red craw, orange craw with slow drags, small hops, ect zero bites. I find it hard to believe these bass can refuse a tasty jig right now. 

 

Any insight on realigning my inner chi to unlock and harness the awesome big bass catching power of the jig? It would be greatly appreciated!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sometimes moving baits are just more effective. As spring approaches jerkbaits,

Red Eye Shad,  Wiggle Warts,  DT6 and Bandit 200's move to the top of my list.

Use what catches fish. to me baits are just tools, don't care how I catch fish.

if horizontal baits are producing, try swimming the jig. 

often times when I cant get bit on bladed jigs or crankbaits a swimjig saves the day.

Winter is a hard time for me to get bit on a jig. I know that sounds completely backwards, but it just seems like so many other baits are better options when the water is cold where I fish. So I rarely use them during the winter months.

Switch up trailers !!! 

I keep telling y'all that awesome jig ain't always the answer!

 

Keep chunking it'll happen ?
