I went out to the lake with my friend with some senkos and jigs w/rage tail chunks as trailors. The senkos were great but the jigs seemed too heavy or somehting and kept getting caught in weeds and stuff. I'm not sure if I'm fishing htem wrong or what. Any tips on jigs like what kind are best and trailors to use and how to use them would be great. Thanks

I am by no means an expert but I like the rage tail chunks.  I have caught quite a few lmbs lately using them on my jigs.

For me it depends what the bottom is like, if the bottom is how you described and the jig will repeadetly get caught in muck as soon as it hits the water, then im not going to throw the jig. I'll prefer a t-rigged creaturebait, or a weightless bait like a trickworm, senko, etc. I prefer to fish jigs on muddy bottoms and rocky bottoms, not weedy bottoms.

The rage tail trailers work great on jigs, but may I suggest you try using an 1/8 oz finesse jig.  The trick here is to use one with a FULL SIZE hook, not a thin wire hook like is found in many of the 1/8 oz jig

look at the Terminator finesse and the Nicols (Nichols?) mango jigs.  The mango comes thru anything, great jigs for the jig student thru jig expert.

Any trailer can be added to these.  I like the *** * with the skirt bitten off and the rage craw or chunk

****Actually, I just noticed the problem,lol,....lose the glove, jigs aren't for sissy's ;D , a bass can't hurt you, ask my sister  

If you aint getting hung up you aint throwing a jig in the right places

hahahahhahaaha i knew someone would notice that. I can handle them usually and my friend caught one that size b4 me and i could handle it but for some reason something about that bass's sandpaper was like digging into me. hahah

So you can throw them into a lot of weed like that? Because I'm pretty sure majority of the lake is like that, especially on the bank i fish on.

welll i believe i was with u

I think what Catt means here is wood, rock, etc.  When it comes to weeds, you want to be IN them but want a jig that comes thru and out of them, clean.

Trust me on this one, get a jig designed to come through grass.

desighn plays a huge roll in jig fishing. all jigs are made with a hook, head, and skirt. btw, lbh, i heard ya on bassfeed, great insight! you dont need the best to fish your best. i love it!
